BMFI and Whole Foods celebrate FOOD, INC.

To celebrate BMFI's opening of the new documentary Food, Inc., Whole Foods Market hosted a dinner for thirty of Bryn Mawr Film Institute's members in BMFI's atrium on Friday, June 26 as a benefit for Bryn Mawr Film Institute. There was also a farmers market in the arcade featuring four local Whole Foods vendors, and after the 7:15 pm screening, there was a discussion with Whole Foods' Abe Heller about the slow food movement.

Thanks to Charlene Nolan, Ruth Harp, Whole Foods Market, and our wonderful members for their continuing support of BMFI!
