Aurora Picture Show presents Prom Date with the A/V Geeks. Curator Skip Elsheimer in attendance. Saturday, August 28, at 7 PM. Location: El Dorado Ballroom, 2310 Elgin Ave.

Break out the chiffon, cummerbunds and awkward teen memories for this unforgettable presentation by an Aurora favorite, A/V Geeks. Vintage 16mm films of proms, dance and social etiquette will be shown in this historic ballroom. Prom-themed treats and punch will be served amidst decorations reminiscent of yonder years. Get your outfit ready for the photo backdrop and the special Prom King and Queen contest!

Special thanks to Saint Arnold Brewery and Project Row Houses for their support of this program.

A/V Geeks is a collection of over 22,000 films, which travels across the nation showing ephemeral screenings in unique settings. For more than a decade, these geeks have been rescuing old 16mm school films from dumpsters and obscurity and showing them to folks like you.
