SUMMARY:"Lightning in a Bottle: A Love Letter to Asbury Lanes" Book Release Exhibit at Parlor Gallery 📚
DESCRIPTION:“Lightning in a Bottle: A Love Letter to Asbury Lanes” is more than a photobook — it is a testament to one of Asbury Park’s most iconic eras. For over a decade\, photographer Mike McLaughlin served as the unofficial “keeper of the Asbury Lanes’ memories\,” instinctively documenting the music\, the misfits\, the staff\, the artists\, and the rare magic that lived inside the Lanes’ walls. His camera became an extension of him\, allowing him to preserve a community and a creative universe that no longer exists. Through more than 100\,000 images captured over 11 years\, McLaughlin offers a visual archive of a beloved cultural landmark — a collective fever dream shared by those who called the Lanes home. \nFRIDAY\, DECEMBER 19th – GALLERY OPENING7:00 PM – 11:00 PM \nThe weekend begins with the official exhibition opening at Parlor Gallery\, featuring work selected by McLaughlin from Lightning in a Bottle. These photographs distill the essence of the Lanes: the sweat\, the grit\, the beauty\, the unfiltered joy\, and the singular community that made the space unforgettable. The exhibition honors the Lanes as both muse and main character — a beacon for artists\, punks\, musicians\, and dreamers. Select prints from the book will be available for purchase.

SUMMARY:🎥 🎬 Movie Night Fundraiser Screening - Christmas in Connecticut at the Showroom Cinema 🎅🏻🍿
DESCRIPTION:Movie Night with The Showroom Theatre will be held on Wednesday\, December 17th at 7:30pm. \nThis annual fundraiser to support The Center in AP returns with the 80th anniversary screening of Christmas in Connecticut. Huge thanks to Daria\, Royce\, and Michael\, at The Showroom\, for their community spirit each year. Below is a little about this classic movie: \nWhile recovering in a hospital\, war hero Jefferson Jones grows familiar with the “Diary of a Housewife” column written by Elizabeth Lane. Jeff’s nurse arranges with Elizabeth’s publisher\, Alexander Yardley\, for Jeff to spend the holiday at Elizabeth’s bucolic Connecticut farm with her husband and child. But the column is a sham\, so Elizabeth and her editor\, Dudley Beecham\, in fear of losing their jobs\, hasten to set up the single\, childless and entirely nondomestic Elizabeth on a country farm. \nA timeless film\, a great cause and a festive evening…come early to join in with The Center’s holiday carolers\, and a sweet surprise\, thanks to Purple Glaze for their delicious donuts. 🍩

SUMMARY:BREAD AND ROSES FILM FESTIVAL
DESCRIPTION:The idea of a female-centric film festival was born the moment that Roe v. Wade was overturned\, as it become even more glaringly obvious simply how much female voices still need protection\, support\, and celebration. Since its inception\, the world of cinema has long been a male dominated space\, and while some movement forward has been made\, progress towards alleviating gender inequities behind the screen has been slow and uneven\, at best. \nEnter\, Bread and Roses\, a term which dates back to the early 1900s and inspired by a speech from suffragist\, Helen Todd. The term went on to become synonymous with the 1912 Lawrence\, Massachusetts textile workers strike – a strike that was led by mostly migrant women through a brutally cold winter (and sadly\, not one without unnecessary bloodshed). \nAt a foundational level\, bread and roses refers to the desire that women deserve both fair wages and dignified conditions. In turn\, “Bread for all\, and Roses too!” (and the many variations thereof) became a common slogan among women’s fights for equal rights across the United States. BRFF’s main mission is to support\, elevate\, and celebrate the unique and diverse voices of female filmmakers from around the world. \nWith an all-female leadership team\, each of us is deeply dedicated and passionate about women’s rights – on and off screen.

SUMMARY:BREAD AND ROSES FILM FESTIVAL
DESCRIPTION:The idea of a female-centric film festival was born the moment that Roe v. Wade was overturned\, as it become even more glaringly obvious simply how much female voices still need protection\, support\, and celebration. Since its inception\, the world of cinema has long been a male dominated space\, and while some movement forward has been made\, progress towards alleviating gender inequities behind the screen has been slow and uneven\, at best. \nEnter\, Bread and Roses\, a term which dates back to the early 1900s and inspired by a speech from suffragist\, Helen Todd. The term went on to become synonymous with the 1912 Lawrence\, Massachusetts textile workers strike – a strike that was led by mostly migrant women through a brutally cold winter (and sadly\, not one without unnecessary bloodshed). \nAt a foundational level\, bread and roses refers to the desire that women deserve both fair wages and dignified conditions. In turn\, “Bread for all\, and Roses too!” (and the many variations thereof) became a common slogan among women’s fights for equal rights across the United States. BRFF’s main mission is to support\, elevate\, and celebrate the unique and diverse voices of female filmmakers from around the world. \nWith an all-female leadership team\, each of us is deeply dedicated and passionate about women’s rights – on and off screen. We are incredibly proud to run a small\, and mighty female-centric film space with hopes of bettering the present (and future) for all women in film\, from their childhood dreams to their professional goals. \nJoin us!
