SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 26, 6PM-10PM @ SILVERADO COMMUNITY CENTER  
The Santa Ana Mountains Wild Heritage Project (SAMWHP) in partnership with Colectivo Tonantzin and "Community Voices" at Dodge College of Film & Media Arts present the 4th Annual Silverado Film Festival. An official community partner of the Newport Beach Film Festival.

MISSION
A film festival dedicated to independent filmmakers inspired by the human & natural communities of the Santa Ana Mountains in Southern California and beyond.


EVENT DESCRIPTION
An outdoor screening of independent films in the historic mining town of Silverado, CA. Silverado is one of a handful of rural canyon communities in Orange County that is threatened by urban sprawl, pollution, catastrophic fires and floods, and misuse. Despite being 15 minutes from suburbia, millions of Orange County residents have never stepped foot in Silverado or its neighboring canyons. This festival is meant to attract visitors under positive circumstances in an effort to inspire stewardship, appreciation, and preservation.

Enjoy live music, healthy food from Oceans & Earth Restaurant (Yorba Linda), and Q&A with filmmakers. To honor natural resources, this year's theme is "SANTA ANA: Mountains, River & City."
