Mothlight Workshops
In 2022 Julia Yezbick and Shanna Maurizi met in a cafe in Detroit and Mothlight Workshops was born. Since then they've been leading multi-day workshop sessions with partners Detroit Narrative Agency, BULKSpace and Carpenter Creative Corridor. The aim with these workshops is to build a local ecosystem around 16mm filmmaking, to gather people around a common love for creative expression, and to demonstrate that this practice is more accessible than people might have previously assumed. Mothlight Workshops offers no-cost 16mm filmmaking workshops, public screenings, and equipment access to help build a deeper and more active celluloid film presence among Detroiters from all walks of life and experience levels. Viva Cinema!
