September 16 in the Cafetorium: The Texas Archive of the Moving Image (TAMI) is teaming up with Raleigh, NC's renowned A/V Geeks to dust off the 16mm projector for a one-night-only screening of vintage educational films.
Hosted by Skip Elsheimer, the mastermind behind A/V Geeks who has rescued thousands of discarded 16mm reels over the decades to create the largest educational and industrial training archive in the world. He goes through them all, selecting the most weird and wondrous - stuff you will wonder at ever having been made. This special program features gems from both his and TAMI’s collections. Join us as we tackle everything from mid-century nuclear preparedness to social-emotional growth, and more!
