Filmmaker's Lounge
Throughout the year, we find opportunities to spotlight and screen individual films, often with the artists behind the film present to share their stories and more about the film. These are intimate standalone screenings that create a space for shared audiences to engage with thought-provoking cinematic works of art.

Outrider: Take the Whole Ride
(with Filmmaker Alystyre Julian)
Fri Aug 28, 2026 6:30 PM - 8:30 PM
Alystyre Julian’s Outrider is the first feature-length cine-kinetic portrait of Grammy-nominated, epic poet, performer, and activist Anne Waldman. Outrider collaborates with Waldman as a person woven of poetry, an inimitable creative and social force dedicated to the propulsion of the artistic imagination and the generative collaborations which form in its wake. The film moves within Waldman’s artistic circles and poetic vortex, to include Patti Smith, Meredith Monk, Bob Dylan, Laurie Anderson, Thurston Moore, Pat Steir, Fast Speaking Music and others. Outrider celebrates Waldman’s visionary energy and transcendent presence, as she channels through the ancient, bardic tradition–the thunderous power of poetry.
