Film and Lecture Series


The Film and Lecture Series brings acclaimed documentaries and narrative films, scholars, authors, journalists and poets to campus throughout the year. The series is designed to introduce an essential component of education in helping audiences consider perspectives other than their own by broadening the basis for critical thought, enjoying various forms of artistic expression, promoting cultural understanding, and encouraging discussion.

The Film and Lecture Series is sponsored by the Patrons of the Arts. For more information, contact leigh.kolb@eastcentral.edu.
