Delaware Humanities presents “Crime & Parody” at the Wilmington International Film Festival Join us for a special afternoon of cinema and conversation in celebration of the humanities. We’re proud to present the award-winning, feature-length documentary "Crime & Parody" directed by Will Thwaites. Following the screening, stay for a Q&A panel with local leaders and scholars as they discuss the themes and topics addressed in the film. Hosted in Wilmington's independent arthouse cinema, Theatre N, this screening will also serve as a fundraiser with 75% of proceeds from ticket sales going to support Delaware Humanities. Admission is $15 per person and space is limited. Registration is required. Presented by Delaware Humanities in partnership with the Wilmington International Film Festival (WIFF), this screening event is being held in honor of Arts & Humanities Month.

The people are marching, the people are loud, we’re done being silenced — and we will not bow! The joy democracy-defenders feel when we are all in a room together is palpable. Help us to build that energy by sponsoring this year’s Kandler Celebration. As a community of activists, we do not want cost to be a barrier to anyone in our community who would like to join us in celebration of our mission and community initiatives. Every sponsorship allows us to welcome all community members to celebrate together because when we work together, we win together, and democracy needs us now. Join us in celebrating our collective community action with an evening of hors d’oeuvres, beverages, and an online silent auction to support civil liberties work in Delaware! Each year, we remember Gerry Kandler, former president of ACLU Delaware, and honor those who exemplify his tireless commitment to the defense of all Delawareans’ civil liberties.
