Saturday, July 9th
It’s documentary day in Picton. Five fantastic non-fiction works taking on everything from gay rights to a New Orleans madam to Canada’s national parks will descend on Picturefest, and they are not to be missed! The first four docs – “Track 2,” “Music From The Big House,” “The Arbor” and “The Canal Street Madam” – will screen at St. Andrew’s Church in downtown Picton, and then we’ll head over to Small Pond Arts for a special outdoor screening of “The National Parks Project.” Bring snacks, a blanket and/or a lawn chair (though food will be for sale at the event). The night will end off with a creepy campfire twist to end things off: A late night screening of horror flick “The Shrine.”
