    FEBRUARY MEETING WITH CHRISTY PIPKIN

    WEDNESDAY FEBRUARY 16th from 7:00-9:00pm at Picture Box Studios - Join us for an evening with filmmaking and humanitarian Christy Pipkins. As the Executive Director of The Nobelity Project, Christy Pipkin works to bring the non-profit’s initiatives to fruition— creating motivating documentaries and short films, helming educational outreach in the US and abroad, and maintaining oversight on development projects around the world.

    In 2005 Christy Pipkin and her husband, Turk, founded The Nobelity Project, an education and action nonprofit, to make movies that make a difference. Their current documentary, One Peace At A Time, explores the idea of fundamental rights for the worlds children as the best path to a more peaceful and sustainable world. Currently The Nobelity Project is building Mahiga Hope High School in rural Kenya–the first high school ever in that community.

    “I am a firm believer that local action has global impact, and that no act is too small to matter. At times global issues can seem overwhelming, but I like to remember when Desmond Tutu told us of a saying in Africa–“There is only one way of eating an elephant…one piece at a time.” – Christy Pipkin

    This event is FREE and open to everyone! Yes, that means Men too!
