The St. Louis International Film Festival (SLIFF) celebrates Joe Edwards, an iconic fixture of St. Louis, for his achievements in connecting cultures and communities since 1972, including the restoration of SLIFF’s signature venue, the Tivoli Theatre. The driving force behind the Loop’s renaissance, Edwards is behind such Delmar institutions as Blueberry Hill, the Pageant, Delmar Hall, the Moonrise Hotel, and the St. Louis Walk of Fame. The event features a reception with beer, wine, cocktails, and food, a video tribute, a compilation reel of Edwards’ favorite films, a conversation between Edwards and KMOX’s Charlie Brennan, and a presentation of SLIFF’s Lifetime Achievement Award.
When: Wednesday, November 7 at Delmar Hall
Purchase Tickets: Tickets on sale via the SLIFF website
