Craft Cinema Halloween: Edward Scissorhands Film Screening CANCELLED
Oct 26 @ 6:00 pm – 8:30 pm
Center for Craft

Edward Scissorhands
1990 ‧ 1h 45m ‧ PG-13

Join us for a Halloween-themed screening of Tim Burton’s 1990 cult-classic “Edward Scissorhands” through the lens of craft! A postmodern take on Frankenstein, the film follows Edward, an unfinished creation who is also an artistic outsider, navigating the conformity of suburban America and leaving behind a trail of avant-garde topiaries and haircuts. The film’s commentary on the handmade versus the machine is rendered with the singular irreverence and stylization of Tim Burton.

Complimentary beverages and popcorn courtesy of Bhramari Brewing Co. and Poppy Handcrafted popcorn are provided. Thank you to our Craft Cinema series sponsor, Brown Brothers Harriman & Co.
