DESCRIPTION:<h2>Nicholas Renee Smith is a filmmaker from Little Rock, Arkansas who is now based in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. "Alligator" (2026) is a slow meditation on the loss of a loved one & the deep untethering that follows.</h2> This special screening of "Alligator" is accompanied by a live original score composed and performed by<strong> Thanks For The Accident. Thanks For The Accident (MKE) is a loosely knit collection of jazz players founded by Preston Carr</strong>. Initially devised to play jazz-funk versions of Leonard Cohen songs, the band has developed into a vehicle for Carr’s sensitive exhortations, inadvisable schemes, and combustible ploys. Preceding "Alligator" will be a collection of shorts by local filmmaker <strong>Britany Gunderson.</strong> <strong>DJ Nicci</strong> will perform directly following the screening, bringing the energy with a mix of hyper-pop and bloghouse tracks.   flyer made by @nataliealiciae   <div class="eventDescription eight columns"> <h2>CACTUS+</h2> Our mission is to create an artist-centered model for multimedia arts education and community building that champions accessibility, inclusivity and sustainability. Founded in 2022, Cactus+ is our effort to formalize and broaden the reach of our arts education and community building programs including workshops, youth internships, and accessibility initiatives. Cactus+ Moving Image’s vision is to create an environment conducive to critical engagement by showing work that takes risks, challenges norms, and opens conversations by showcasing a wide range of artist-driven independent media. As a series, we hope to offer a space for inter-generational attendees to engage with film, expanded cinema, and integrated moving image arts practices made by artists from a variety of backgrounds. To keep a flow of new perspectives, the monthly programs are curated by Cactus+ as well as visionary guest programmers. We have hosted installations, video jockeys, workshops in stop motion, teen film-making, hosting screenings, and cinema studies.
