Below are favorites Confederation Park (1999) and The Subconscious Art of Graffiti Removal (2001), but be sure to click through to their Vimeo pages to check out other recently rescanned gems as well!
Announcing the Boathouse Microcinema!
Peripheral Produce founder Matt McCormick, along with Portland artist Chris Freeman, are getting ready to launch a new cinematic venture: The Boathouse Microcinema. A temporary, 30-seat movie theater in an old fire station, The Boathouse Microcinema will focus primarily on featuring local work and that of touring/traveling filmmakers. This is very much an extension, or evolution, of Peripheral Produce, so if you miss the old screenings be sure to check it out: www.boathousemicrocinema.com
