Friday, January 17, 7pm, Gateway Film Center, 1550 N. High St.

Are you ready to explore the magic that lives beneath our feet?

We’re delighted to host the opening night screening of “Fantastic Fungi” at the Gateway Film Center. You can see the trailer on the website and be sure to visit the Mush Room for wonderful resources and clips that will draw you in for a deep dive into the world of mushrooms and the new knowledge of their functions in maintaining and healing our planet. The film features world renowned mycologist Paul Stamets.

“Louie [Schwartzberg] and his team have accomplished an amazing task — with beautiful imagery, celebrating the quality of nature we have now. ‘Fantastic Fungi’ is a film that serves to be a bridge of understanding to connect these ideas. By investing in these fungal networks, we invest in the webs of life. Time is short. We need to bring this knowledge to the forefront of public consciousness.” — Paul Stamets

Not to be missed! If you can’t attend on Friday evening when Simply Living will be tabling and hosting an expert panel and a question-and-answer discussion, make plans to see it during the week of January 17-23. Details on our panel will be announced soon.
