Arverne Cinema Inside

Famous for photographs of his beloved Weimaraner dogs, American artist William Wegman made a number of brilliant short films with his charming canine collaborators, many of them appearing on television shows like Sesame Street. Funny, playful, and strange, his elaborate scenes celebrate the wonderful oddities of everyday life and will elicit smiles from audience members of all ages. 

Special thanks to Christine Burgin, Karl McCool, Jooyoung Friedman-Buchanan and EAI.
