Shabbat Shalom! It’s film month in Boulder, with the Boulder International Film Festival going on this weekend, and the Boulder Jewish Film Festival starting next weekend. Tickets are going fast for the Boulder Jewish Film Festival, March 12 – 20 at the Dairy Center. Boulder Jewish News is thrilled to co-sponsor the closing night film, “Dough,” starring Jonathan Pryce.
We hope to see you Sunday night March 20th at the film and reception. Tickets still available for several of the films at the Dairy Center website. They cleverly have a little stoplight symbol next to each film to show how close each showing is to selling out.
Also, congratulations to Seth Wong and Ashleigh Miller on their upcoming nuptuals this weekend!
Have a great, safe, warm weekend, and enjoy the roundup of this week’s stories in the BJN:
