“A vital and joyful work that puts a lesser-known part of American civil rights history on the map” – Sight & Sound

Down the road from Woodstock, a revolution blossomed in a ramshackle summer camp for teenagers with disabilities, transforming their lives and igniting the disability-rights movement. At Camp Jened, teens with disabilities tasted freedom, friendship, and self‑expression; decades later those bonds fueled protests, sit‑ins, and policy fights that reshaped American civil rights. Through archival footage and candid interviews, Crip Camp: A Disability Revolution provides a galvanizing chronicle of community united around the fight for rights and dignity.

This film is presented with closed captions and audio description.

Presented on the 36th anniversary of the passage of the Americans with Disabilities Act, this 100% FREE screening is presented by the Starkloff Network. Seating is first come, first served. No tickets required.
