0

As a lead-up to the 3rd Annual MuseWomen’s Conference, World Muse and BendFilm are hosting a screening of the award-winning film, Girl Rising on Tuesday, February 17 at 5:30p.m. at McMenamins Old St. Francis School Theater in Bend.

From Academy Award-nominated director Richard E. Robbins, Girl Rising journeys around the globe to witness the strength of the human spirit and the power of education to change the world. Viewers get to know nine unforgettable girls living in the developing world: ordinary girls who confront tremendous challenges and overcome nearly impossible odds to pursue their dreams. Prize-winning authors put the girls’ remarkable stories into words, and renowned actors give them voice.

“We are thrilled to be partnering with BendFilm to bring Girl Rising to our community,” said World Muse Founder Amanda Stuermer. “We are always looking for opportunities to give women and girls a platform from which to be heard. Girl Rising celebrates the voices and stories of young women from around the world.”

“Together World Muse and BendFilm can leverage our brands and resources to empower the next generation of women artists and filmmakers,” said BendFilm Director Todd Looby. “This is an all ages event and while it has the ability to inspire all of us, we hope to see Moms bringing their daughters and have as many young women as possible attend the event.”
