**This will be Paul DeNigris’ last month as our MMM host! Come out, screen your work or help give feedback, and thank Paul for his wonderful service to the community!** Monthly Movie Meeting is a chance for filmmakers to screen current works for feedback from an audience of peers.

As always, there are two ways to participate:
- Sign up to screen a short film or part of a feature
- Attend the meeting and offer peer feedback to the filmmakers screening their works
