A fundraiser for a new local film will feature a host of Memphis talent at Crosstown Arts Wednesday night.
The new film, Kissing River Phoenix, is slated to begin production next spring. The film is from Memphis writer Kat Moore and is based on a short story recently published in the University of Memphis magazine.
The fundraiser event is called River City Ruckus and will feature performances by several Memphis writers and musicians and will feature works from some of the city’s visual artists.
The Ruckus runs from 6 p.m.-9 p.m. at 430 North Cleveland. Tickets are $10 with a $1.54 handling fee.
