July 11: Movie Screening: STEP with Special Post-Screening Q & A

STEP is the true-life story of a girls’ high-school step dance team against the background of the heart of Baltimore. These young women learn to laugh, love and thrive – on and off the stage – even when the world seems to work against them. Empowered by their teachers, teammates, counselors, coaches and families, they chase their ultimate dreams: to win a step championship and to be accepted into college. This all female school is reshaping the futures of its students’ lives by making it their goal to have every member of their senior class accepted to and graduate from college, many of whom will be the first in their family to do so. Deeply insightful and emotionally inspiring, STEP embodies the true meaning of sisterhood through a story of courageous young women worth cheering for.

 

This movie hits theatres in August during this special advance screening you’ll get to go beyond the film with STEP director Amanda Lipitz and some of the young women featured in the film, Blessin Giraldo, Cori Grainger, Tayla Solomon, with their step coach Gari McIntyre and college counsellor, Paula Defat – as they will also join us for a special post-screening Q&A!

 

Please note this movie is Rated PG and we have very limited tickets for this event that has been given to us by our sponsor, 20th Century Fox. Tickets will be distributed on a first come first serve basis.
