National Building Museum's
Great Green Places Video Contest

It's Your Turn — Tell Us About Your Great Green Place!

Deadline: February 15, 2010

The National Building Museum has posted a series of mini-documentaries that identify the specific elements that help make Great Green Places. Now it is your turn to be the director! Grab a video camera, or even your cell phone, and document the green public places in your community. Then upload your film to the National Building Museum's "Your Great Green Places" Vimeo Group. You will need to join Vimeo — which is free — to upload your video. Films should be no longer than six minutes and should investigate what works in your local neighborhood's “Great Green Place.”

Submit your video by February 15, 2010, for a chance to be selected for live screening as part of the museum's participation in the DC Environmental Film Festival in March 2010. Judged by audience response and museum staff, the top three film submissions will also be featured on the homepage of the museum's website for two weeks each in the spring of 2010.
