The Zonta Club of the Joliet Area, in partnership with Wild & Scenic Films, invites the community to its “Through Her Eyes” Film Festival on Thursday, March 21, at the Renaissance Center, 214 N. Ottawa Street, in downtown Joliet.
The Joliet-area film festival, formerly known as LUNAFEST, is in its third year, with all proceeds supporting the Zonta Club of the Joliet Endowed Scholarship at Joliet Junior College. This year’s event is emceed by Caroline Portlock, Director of Workforce Investment Board of Will County. With her dynamic and witty personality, Caroline will facilitate engaging conversation among attendees. The event has a new twist this year with films that depict women’s relationships with the environment and how it impacts the lens in which they view themselves and their day-to-day way of living.

The event starts at 4 p.m. with a “Boss Up” social hour that includes entertainment by Karen Isberg Sorbero, appetizers, and a cash bar with a signature drink.
