Event

Food & Farm Film Fest at the Rio

Tickets will be available at the door!

Join 18 Reasons and the Rio Theater for a special on-the-road presentation of our 2015 opening night shorts program. We are excited to partner with the Rio, a locally-owned independent theater located on the banks of the Russian River. The Rio also happens to have an acre of lawn that's just perfect for a picnic before the show. We will have live music on the lawn starting at 5, with a picnic supper served at 6. The films will begin at 8. Come enjoy a summer afternoon by the river, followed by some of our favorite films from this year's fest!

Your ticket includes supper and entry to the films. Wine and beer will be for sale on site.

We are also offering a special "Peacock's Picnic" basket for $50 (one person) or $75 (two people). The Peacock's Picnic includes dinner; admission to the film screening; a picnic basket and blanket for you to use during the festival; a cookbook; a special bottle of wine; and some more treats and surprises. Shake your tail feather!
