Richmond YMCA students get their turn on the Red Carpet, May 1

This Saturday, students from the Richmond District YMCA’s Afterschool program may have to look over their shoulder for paparazzi while their short films premiere on the big screen at the Balboa Theater.

The “Richmond District YMCA Movie Premiere” event takes place at 11am on Saturday at the Balboa, 3630 Balboa Street. The films being shown are movies that K – 5 students in the program wrote, made the costumes for and starred in.

Tickets are $5 per person (adult or child) and all proceeds benefit the the Richmond District YMCA Afterschool Program for children at Argonne and Lafayette Elementary schools.

For more information, contact Raquel Espana at the Richmond District YMCA at 666-9605 or respana@ymcasf.org.
