Stories of Community<\/h1>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text el_class=”partners-intro-text”]Stories of Community is a series of short films commissioned by Resilient Sustainable Future for Iowa City in partnership with FilmScene to amplify stories of community members building a sustainable and resilient future.<\/p>\n

The first Stories of Community screening was held on Feb. 25th. We are grateful to everyone who joined us to celebrate the stories of the Wonderful Westside, South District, and Longfellow neighborhoods and for being in a joyful community with you all. We hope Fatima, Abdias, the Harveys, and the Plattes inspired you to start (or continue!) organizing in your own neighborhoods.
