Outdoors For All Foundation

On October 7th-9th, 2010, the Outdoors for All Foundation, Mountainfilm on Tour & First Ascent/Eddie Bauer are bringing three nights of over 15 inspiring films to the Magnuson Park Community Theater in Seattle (7:00pm). Indulge in some pulse pounding, thought provoking and captivating films focused on activism, culture, environmentalism and adventure. Sit back and immerse yourself in the world of film. From free climbing Yosemite’s iconic half dome to taking an in-depth look at possibly one of the most ambitious park restorations ever attempted. Mountainfilm has something for everyone! Tickets are $10 each night in advance and can be purchased through Brown Paper Tickets.

Mountainfilm on Tour is a mix of some of the best films from the Mountainfilm in Telluride film festival which is held every year in Telluride, CO. Mountainfilm features short films covering a wide array of topics. Each year, Mountainfilm attracts filmmakers, photographers, coservationists, mountaineers and explorers from around the world. In 2000, the Mountainfilm in Telluride festival embarked on a new journey - Mountainfilm on Tour. Through the festival tour, a selection of films from the international festival are taken on the road to reach audiences who otherwise wouldn’t have a chance to experience the festival in Telluride.
