Films That Matter

Thanks for a great 2011 Films That Matter Series!  Visit us often to learn about other events and to see the 2012 film line-up as soon as it is released.

Each year the Center hosts an outdoor film series in partnership with local parks, media outlets and nonprofit organizations.

The films are shown on mild evenings in some of Atlanta’s best outdoor settings and feature mainstream hits with civil and human rights themes.  Free and open to the public, the series is designed to bring people together for evenings of entertainment, reflection and community. Past examples  of film choices include The Pursuit of Happyness, The Secret Life of Bees, Invictus, and Philadelphia.

"This wonderful film series isn't just a fun, family-friendly event, it serves as a cultural outlet to communities that may not have traditional access to the humanities..."

A.J. Robinson, President and CEO of Central Atlanta
