Listen to how fun this is going to be:

Starting November 22nd, make a pretend documentary about a history of Akron that you invent. Maybe you’ll describe the Great Zeppelin Wars of 1946, or 1879’s case of mistaken identity that led to the invention of the personal computer.

We’ll provide a few things about current Akron life that your story must explain. The films, which must last five minutes or fewer, are due on December 6th. Then, at a free public wrap up event on December 10th at 7:30pm at the Akron Art Museum, a winner will be chosen by a jury of documentary makers.

The winning team gets $250 cash plus an assortment of items from local businesses! Get the registration form here.
