Imagine That Campfire Song by Sarah Klein with Orange Sherbert
"Imagine That" is an animation screening curated by Sarah Klein that features kid-made cartoons, suitable for adults, and adult-made animations fitting for kids. Featuring a variety of techniques and approaches these animations explore the limits of outer space, familiar landscapes, big places and small spaces. Before and after the show you can view the exhibition "McSweeney's McMullens: Artwork from Children's Books, plus 1,032 Illustrated Lunch Bags." Doors open at 5:30 PM, show starts at 6 PM. Hot cocoa and cookies will be served. About the curator: Sarah Klein is a San Francisco Bay Area artist whose practice includes animation.
