CORRECTIONS TO THE QUEER FILM FESTIVAL POST

As it seems there has been some miscommunications recently there have been a few dates that have been messed up - so here is the REAL Queer Film Festival post - please pay attention to this one!

The 23rd Annual Queer Film Festival will be running from August 11th - 21st and be located at a variety of theatres Downtown, and yes, you will need to purchase tickets.

Tickets are $11 General Admission and $8 for students/underemployed.

Pride UBC is happy to announce that we will be hosting the film on the 16th! The film is called the "Jamie Travis Retrospective" and will be at  Cineplex Odeon International Village Cinemas, 3rd Floor, 88 W Pender Street (at Abbott) at 7:00 PM. We would love to see everyone there to support this! We will also be creating a facebook group for the event!
