The Hoboken Museum is pleased to welcome back New Jersey's own Black Maria Film Festival for an evening of wine-tasting and short documentary films, with wine provided by Cork Wine & Spirits (1450 Washington St.). Festival director Jane Steuerwald will introduce a selection of the festival's award-winning short films, including "Umbrella House," whose director Catalina Santamaria, will be present for the Q&A session. Tickets are $10 in advance, $12 day of the show. Click here to buy a ticket. 

Since 1981, the mission of the Black Maria Film Festival has been to promote, illuminate, and advocate innovation in the art of the moving image. The festival has passionately embraced this mission for the past thirty-five years, and is named after the world's first motion picture studio built by Thomas Edison, where he made all of his own short experimental films. Moviemaker's Spring 2010 issue lists the Black Maria Film Festival as one of "25 Film Festivals Worth the Entry Fee."
