The James River Association, James River Outdoor Coalition, and James River Advisory Council are organizing the third annual Films on the Floodwall. The free community film screening is scheduled for Wednesday, September 13 at Diversity Park in Richmond’s James River Park System. The event, which also features an informational village of various river-related organizations, will begin at 6 p.m. and films will begin screening after sunset.

Professional and amateur local filmmakers are encouraged to submit original films to be screened at the event. Films should feature the James River, or one of its tributaries, and include subjects of conservation outdoor recreation, parks and public spaces, wildlife and ecosystems or aesthetics.

Film submissions will be accepted through next Friday. Submitted films will be reviewed by event organizers and filmmakers will be notified if their film is selected for screening. Films should be submitted to Justin Doyle of the James River Association via email at jdoyle@jrava.org or on a DVD via mail:
