Film: Right to Risk

No charge. Aappropriate for all the family.

Complimentary dessert and discussion with Kathleen Ryan after the one-hour film.

The first South Whidbey screening of the award winning documentary, Right to Risk, produced by Kathleen Ryan of Coupeville. (www.righttorisk.org)

This one-hour film -- which documents the life-affirming journey of eight individuals with severe disabilities on the trip of a lifetime -- is for the whole family. It depicts, in beautiful cinematography and first class drama, a raw adventure of 15 days navigating white-water rapids down 225 miles of the Colorado River through the Grand Canyon.

It’s a most effective film which changes the perception and improves our understanding of persons with disabilities. It’s such a winning, first rate, film everyone gets a “take-away.” It also brings community together on issues relating to our personal and civic understanding of our capacity to respect and accommodate persons with disabilities.

The Progressive Association is proud to host this film. Our obligation as owner/caretaker of Clinton Hall is to be community-inclusive and to recognize our responsibilities to serve all our citizens.
