Immerse in a weekend of curated films and one-of-a-kind Grace Farms site experiences in New Canaan, Connecticut on January 30 – 31, designed to honor the pivotal moment when one person commits to designing and building for the benefit of humankind and the Earth. Watch stories of bold, genius dreamers who put seemingly impossible ideas into action in the fields of architecture and design, and enjoy moments to reflect on your own journey through food, music, yoga, and guided walks.

Opening night of the film festival on January 30 will feature an evening film and conversation with inspiring themes that will echo throughout the next day. Grace Farms Members are invited to a casual reception on Friday to meet the directors and connect with fellow members.

Spend the day at Grace Farms on Saturday, January 31, with films and Q&As spread among three spaces in the River building and Barns, and food available for purchase. Throughout the day there will be additional opportunities to join a guided winter walk organized with New York Botanical Garden, Yoga and Movement with Pilin Anice, and a design session with Slade Architecture.

This year’s films have been curated by co-Festival Directors Kyle Bergman and Toshihiro Oki. The special partnership between the two organizations is grounded in the spirit of bringing the worlds of films, architecture and community together in a setting for creating new discussions and outcomes.
