In celebration of Salida Art Walk, the SteamPlant will screen two films that highlight artists and their unique voices. From 4:30 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. on June 13, the SteamPlant will show Bill Traylor: Chasing Ghosts. Having witnessed profound social and political change during a life spanning slavery, Reconstruction, Jim Crow segregation, and the Great Migration, Traylor devised his own visual language to translate an oral culture into something original, powerful, and culturally rooted.

From 4:30 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. on June 27 patrons may watch Truman & Tennessee: An Intimate Conversation. The work, personal struggles, and cultural impact of iconic American writers Truman Capote and Tennessee Williams explodes onto the screen in this innovative dual-portrait documentary.
Filmmaker Lisa Immordino Vreeland collages a wealth of archival material, including dishy talk show appearances with Dick Cavett and David Frost, with clips from some of the duo’s most memorable movie adaptations: A Streetcar Named Desire, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, The Glass Menagerie, Breakfast at Tiffany’s, and In Cold Blood. Featuring vibrant voiceover work by award-winning actors Jim Parsons (Capote) and Zachary Quinto (Williams), the film is dripping with wit and wisdom.
Tickets for either show are nine dollars each and only available online. Limited seating for each screening.
