FAMDA’s Newest Offspring
Did you know that the letters of F A M D A originally stood for Film, Art, Music & Drama Association?
FAMDA is returning to its roots with the decision to form the Prom Coast Film Society.
The aim of the project is to provide access to high quality non-mainstream films in a community setting plus the opportunity for social discussion and interaction.
FAMDA has a strong reputation for providing Foster audiences with entertaining and often quirky plays and the Prom Coast Film Society aims to keep up this tradition using a new medium.
It is proposed that the Prom Coast Film Society would become a financially self supporting sub-group of the main FAMDA body similar to the Prom Coast Singers.
As mandated by the Australian Council of Film Societies (ACOFS) members would need to have a separate subscription to the Prom Coast Film Society.
The plan is to show “art house” films in the Fish Creek Memorial Hall on the First Friday of each month, thus catering for both for both locals and those who visit at weekends.
To launch the project the Prom Coast Film Society showed “Animal Kingdom” on Friday 4 March 2011.
