We can almost smell the cookies baking, and hear the knitting needles clacking together. This week on CinemaJaw we are taking a look through cinema to shine a light on the best Movie Grandmothers!<\/p>\n

We have a guest joining us who knows how to nurture film!<\/p>\n

\"\"Rebecca Fons is the Gene Siskel Film Center\u2019s new director of programming! Fons, a longtime Film Center member and member of the center\u2019s Community Council advocacy group, brings with her over a decade of experience in curating film for art house theaters and film festivals, including the Chicago International Film Festival, where she served as Education Director for nine years.<\/p>\n

She holds a Master’s Degree in Arts Management from Columbia College Chicago and a BA in Cinema and Comparative Literature Studies from the University of Iowa, so she knows what’s up!<\/p>\n

Fons\u2019s goal is to present programming that is \u201cdiverse, inclusive, and exceptional,\u201d which aligns with Film Center’s mission and nearly 50-year tradition of screening critically acclaimed international, independent, and classic film programs that entertain, educate, and provoke, and represent a diversity of ethnicities, cultures, and voices.\u00a0Fons\u00a0will also seek opportunities to evaluate and expand existing programs and audiences.<\/p>\n

Very excited for Rebecca’s new role in the Chicago, and international film scene!<\/p>\n

So sit back and let granny (CinemaJaw) bake a pie for your ears!
\nIt’s your favorite flavor!!![\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text animation=”top-to-bottom” css=”.vc_custom_1612198806270{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]\n
