Everyone welcome. Free. No advance registration.
Our Roxborough neighbor, Joanne Green, is a retired costume and prop designer for television and film, including The Muppet Movie. But Jim Henson's dark fantasy movie, The Dark Crystal (1982) is not about Muppets! In a world of strange creatures, it tells of the quest for the missing shard of the crystal to restore balance and overthrow evil.
Join Joanne as she recounts her firsthand work on this remarkable project. She will start with a 40 minute documentary, The Making of The Dark Crystal. Following the movie, she will discuss the movie’s pioneering animatronics and special effects, her artistic work with Jim Henson and her experience with the project.
Accessible. Enter by walkway from Warden Drive, near mailbox.
