A free screening of “Ride The Divide” will be presented at 7 p.m. Friday, July 5, at The Cole Art Center as part of the SFA School of Art’s First Friday Film Series.
It’s the story of Mike, a 40-year-old family man who uses this challenge to chart a new course in life; Matthew, a leader in extreme endurance racing who’s competing for his fifth time; and Mary, the first female rider to race this route, who will set out to accomplish what very few have been able to do. Over the course of a few weeks, they’ll attempt to climb more than 200,000 vertical feet over the Rocky Mountains.
“Ride The Divide” is produced by Mike Dion, executive producer; Hunter Weeks, director; Joe Cantwell, producer; and Josh Caldwell and Anthony Cimino, associate producers.
The Cole Art Center is located at 329 E. Main St. in downtown Nacogdoches. For more information, call (936) 468-1131. The First Friday Film Series is sponsored in part by the Friends of the Visual Arts and Nacogdoches Junior Forum.
