DESCRIPTION OF DFG
DOYLESTOWN FILM GROUP is a casual discussion group
centered around films showing at the County Theater.
We explore movies, characters, emotions, storytelling,
and whatever else sparks our curiosity.
Each meeting also includes a fun "Creativity Gym"
with playful exercises designed to stretch the imagination.
No expertise required.
Just thoughtful conversation, interesting people,
and a shared appreciation for the art of film.
