Short Docs at Parrish
At The Parrish Art Museum in Water Mill
The Parrish Art Museum in Water Mill will present the regional premiere of “Fieldworks,” a program of seven short documentaries that explore the nature of socially engaged art, tomorrow at 6 p.m.
Among the issues engaged by the films are childhood lead poisoning, health care in under-resourced communities, bioremediation of an underground oil spill in Brooklyn, sex education, homelessness, and working conditions in the coffee industry in Mexico and New York City.
The films will be introduced by Joelle Te Paske, programs and communications manager of A Blade of Grass, the nonprofit art organization that created the 38-minute program. Admission is $10, free for members, students, and children.
