The Carroll County Arts Center is showing a documentary film STEP on January 26, 2018

“STEP” is an inspiring documentary of the senior year of a girls’ high-school step dance team in inner-city Baltimore.

The film is sponsored by JeannieBird Baking Company and hosted by FLIC - Film Lovers in Carroll County and Carroll Arts Center

Westminster Md. - The Carroll County Arts Center (CCAC) is showing a Documentary film STEP on January 26, 2018 at 1 p.m. and 7:00 p.m., highlighting three Senior members of the STEP dance team @ the Baltimore Leadership School for Young Women in Baltimore City.

The film documents their senior year preparing for the STEP competition at Bowie State College along with preparation for college entrance. The film shows the young women striving to be the first in their families to attend college and make dancing a success against the backdrop of social unrest in the city.

According to the JeannieBird Baking Company, “this Friday we’re sponsoring two showings of the hip documentary Step at the @carrollartscenter AND we’ll be sampling some of our sweets in the lobby before the evening show!

“STEP is an inspiring documentary of the senior year of a girls’ high-school step dance team in inner-city Baltimore. The evening screening will be followed with a short step performance by The Lethal Ladies of BLYSW (pronounced bliss.)”

It won the U.S. Documentary Special Jury Award for Inspirational Filmmaking at the 2017 Sundance Film Festival, the Audience Award for Best Feature at the 2017 Sundance American Film Institute Doc’s Festival and the NAACP Image Award.

The young women will be performing live after the movie and then doing a Q&A from the audience. Jeannie Bird Bakery is sponsoring the film. For more information go to www.CarrollCountyArtsCouncil.org.
