FILM SCREENING: Hearts of Glass
9-9-2019 at 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm
Hearts of Glass follows the rocky start up of Vertical Harvest, a state-of-the-art hydroponic greenhouse that provides local crops to Jackson Hole’s tony restaurants as well as employment for people with disabilities. Plants and people grow together in this intimate portrait of innovation, inclusion and community.
The inaugural Richard Meritzer Award, co-sponsored by the City-County Task Force on Disabilities and ReelAbilities Pittsburgh, will be presented to the Pittsburgh Cultural Trust. The award honors the memory of Richard Meritzer (1953-2019), who served as ADA Coordinator for the City of Pittsburgh from 2007 to 2019 and was a leader in promoting understanding and implementation of the Americans with Disabilities Act.
Following the program there will be a catered reception.
