October 25 Premiere: “Through Their Eyes: The History of America at War from 1917 through the Global War on Terror.” Series of Short Films

The Veterans History Museum of the Carolinas invites local residents and visitors to a unique event in downtown Brevard on Tuesday evening, October 25. The museum’s newest addition, a series of six short films entitled “Through Their Eyes,” will premiere at the Co-Ed Cinema, located at 79 W. Main Street. Admission is free. “A year ago, we conceived a plan to enhance our visitors’ experience using a 5-to-7 minute video in each gallery from WWI through the War on Terror which tells the story of that conflict through the eyes of those who fought and sometimes died there,” said the project’s director, Michel Robertson. Each video offers a synopsis of the conflict and its effects on Americans through narration, music, photos, video clips, and museum artifacts. “With the support of grants from NC Humanities and local partners (Lake Toxaway Charities, Pisgah Forest Rotary, and Transylvania County), the filming talents of Real Digital Productions, and a hardworking project team, our dream has become a reality,” said Robertson. The six videos comprising “Through Their Eyes” will premiere in a 40-minute feature shown twice at Brevard’s Co-Ed Cinema at 5:00 and 7:00 p.m. “But that’s not all,” explained Robertson. “The museum will host a block party at Clemson Plaza next door to the theater from 5:30 to 7:00 p.m. This time frame enables movie-goers to join the fun after 5:00 or before the 7:00 show.” The party-on-the-plaza will feature cookies and hot beverages, music from WWI through the current day by “The...
