Special Pride Month Screening
In celebration of Pride Month, the Bay Area Film Society in partnership with Chequamegon Pride will screen The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert. The 1994 Australian cult classic was written and directed by Stephan Elliott and follows two drag queens and a transgender woman as they journey across the Australian Outback in a tour bus that they have named “Priscilla”.
BAFS Closing Statement on 2022-2023 Season
To our members, volunteers, sponsors, donors, community partners and general audience:
Thank you.
We could not have asked for a better way to have celebrated our 25th-anniversary season. We had: six months of great films; a major donation drive that gave us a nice, $1,200 bump; and finally caught up with the rest of the 21st century by now being able to accept Venmo at our shows, as well as e-commerce options through our website.

The Bay Area Film Society is happy to announce that we have earned $1,295.05 in donations through our time as the Round Up partner for Chequamegon Food Co-op in March of 2023.
