Flaunting its fabulous new facelift, the Parkway Theater opens its doors on Sunday to this month’s Fearless Filmmakers event. Don’t be confused if you see a lot of youngsters in the lurking about. It’s not the venue; it’s the event. Acknowledging our overwhelming focus on adults in the art world, Fearless Filmmakers has taken a stand to correct the oversight by focusing on “Kids in the Biz.” The evening will begin with music by Now, Now Every Children — a lovely, languid sound. And Joe Minjares, owner of the Parkway and Pepitos Restaurant, will even provide appetizers and drinks. The screenings will begin at 6 p.m., and will include 15 films made by kids between 7 and 17 years old. Following the screening, there will be a Q & A session with the filmmakers, and an after party with a Guitar Hero competition.
Sunday at 5 p.m., The Parkway Theater, 4814 Chicago Avenue, Minneapolis; 612-822-3030; $9, students $7, children $5.
