Reel Pride Film Festival – September 16-20, 2009

For 20 years, Reel Pride has worked to increase the awareness of the gay and lesbian community through the exhibition of films and videos exploring gay and lesbian themes at an annual festival in Fresno. Over these years it has grown to become one of the largest gay and lesbian film festivals in the US and a premiere cultural event in Central California.

Join us this September as we celebrate at the historic Tower Theatre and Starline Lounge with the best new LGBT films and the hottest parties around!

Our first event of! the 20th year takes place at the historic Tower Theatre Wednesday September 16th at 7:30pm with the acclaimed film by Kirby Dick “OUTRAGE”. Your opening night ticket provides you with general admission to the film and access to our 20th anniversaryopening night celebration. You’ll enjoy complimentary cocktails and hors d’oeuvres at the gala and dan! ce to the groove-a-licious sounds of DJ Heinz.

But that’s not all… the fun continues with events, stars, parties and movies over the next 5 days as Reel Pride until it finally winds down on Sunday night September 20th with the closing night screening of “Edie & Thea: A Very Long Engagement.”
