Arts East Center, La Grande, Oregon: Saturday, November 24, 8 to 10:30 p.m., join a group of fellow film enthusiasts to watch a curated selection of lesser-known classics, under-seen influential movies, ‘70s and ‘80s “trash,” cop movies, horror and more. The films are projected in the ACE gallery for an authentic film-going experience. Teaching artist Lucas Kruse introduces each screening and facilitates a casual group discussion at the end – like a book club, except it’s Film Club. Follow @filmclubace on Instagram for monthly updates. These screenings take place monthly on the last Saturday. Please enter through the Penn Ave door. Admission is $5 and you must be 18 or older to attend. Find more information at www.artcentereast.org or contact the Center at 541.962.2800 or info@artcentereast.org.
