Come see the double-feature of Chris Brenner's historical films, 'Rumson Hill' & 'Highland Beach' at Rumson Presbyterian Church in Wilson Hall on Saturday, March 14th, 2020 4 - 6 PM.
This event features 2 films from local filmmaker, Chris Brenner. The first film is ‘Rumson Hill’. If you've ever skated on McCarter's Pond in Fair Haven, or driven the tree lined streets of Sycamore Lane in Rumson, you've enjoyed features of the grand Rumson Hill Estate. Spend 20 Minutes to learn about how the estate came to be, and how it's mostly vanished today.
The second film, ‘Highland Beach’, is the story and history of an iconic beach resort that hosted hundred of thousands of guests from 1888 - 1962. Learn why time, technology and politics washed away one of the first tourist destinations of the Jersey Shore. This film was an official selection for the 2017 Garden State Film Festival and is 40 minutes long.
Tickets are $5 at the door and include a free popcorn! Kids under 5 are free! There will be popcorn, snacks, drinks and a 15 minute intermission between the films. Chris Brenner will also be in attendance for a Q&A after the films! Bring your friends and family and enjoy the exciting history of this place we are so fortunate to call home.
