MAD will be open on Mon, May 6.

Jim Trainor

Fri, Nov 2 / 7 pm

Due to the aftermath of hurricane Sandy, this program has been postponed to Tuesday, November 13th at 7pm. 

Jim Trainor has been making animated films since the age of thirteen. Working with only a black magic marker on office paper, he creates humorous nature and ethnographic documentaries, which through crude movements and simplistic renderings reveal poetic insights into the inner workings of the human psyche.
