Community Now Film Project

Community Now: Year Five Premiere

Where: Maurice Young Millennium Place
When: February 19, 7:30pm

Begun in 2005, the Whistler Museum & Archives Society’s Community Now film project strives to capture the history and experience of the people who have and who still call this special place home.  Video shorts distill Whistler residents’ remembrances of the town’s history, day-to-day life and the meaning of finally capturing the dream that started it all — hosting the 2010 Winter Olympic and Paralympic Games.

This year’s film, Whistler’s Coming of Age Story, traces the arc of Whistler’s journey from First Nations’ lands to the fishing resort of Alta Lake to the nascent days of Whistler Resort to what you see around you today and what the world will see next February and March.  Later this year, the short films of the past years will be edited into a full-length film… the Whistler story, to help preserve the legacy and history of one of the world’s unique places.
