Northwest Film Forum, Engauge Experimental Film Festival, Seattle Experimental Animation Team, among others. Iβm in Olympia, about an hour south, where I taught animation.

June 14 is Trumpβs b-day + Flag Dayβbut we wonβt let a wannabe king wrap himself in our flag. As he parades in DC, we rise up nationwide to defend democracy. No kings. No fascism. Make this protest bigger than ever. #NoKingsDay #DefendDemocracy #June14
