You’re invited to a special screening of the Moving Picture Institute Original feature film Pinball: The Man Who Saved the Game. Based on the true story of Roger Sharpe, who in 1976 helped overturn New York City’s ban on pinball, the arcade game becomes a symbol of how the government imposes on people’s lives and happiness — through prohibitions and misguided regulations.
Join us for an evening of fellowship among friends of liberty.
