Kaye Shaw, member of the Cheesman chapter of the League of Women Voters of Denver, told the League of Women Voters of Colorado task force that she attended a Colorado Sun event where organizers announced a Denver screening of the documentary Strip for Parts on June 5 at the Tattered Cover/film center on East Colfax.

The screening, Shaw said, includes an appearance by the Oscar‑nominated director for a post‑screening discussion. Shaw said she pulled pricing and distribution options from the film’s site and that the producers offer multiple licensing tiers: an institutional streaming license (three‑year, one‑year or 14‑day windows), and one‑time screening prices the site lists for institutions and community groups. She said the site lists a recommended $10 ticket price for the public event but also offers a sliding scale at RSVP.

The task force’s immediate plan is to encourage members who can attend the June 5 screening to do so, put a short announcement in the League newsletter before Memorial Day weekend and email task force members who live in the Denver area. “If everybody registers themselves,” Shaw said, “the only thing, if you do plan to go, I would like to know just so I could look forward to seeing you there, and maybe we could then talk about it after the presentation.”

Crystal O’Neil, a task force member who said media literacy is a core interest, said she was looking at the film information and expected to attend. “Media literacy is really important to me,” O’Neil said, describing the screening as relevant to the task force’s work.

Shaw briefed the group on listed institutional prices on the film’s website: a streaming institutional license option (multi‑year and shorter windows), a college/institution price listed about $295, libraries listed at $50, and community organization prices around $125 (numbers as posted on the distributor’s site). Shaw said she would follow up with the film organizers to confirm exact terms, whether the League could secure a special license, and whom any ticket revenue would benefit.

Task force members agreed to a low‑commitment promotion: publish the event notice in the next newsletter and email members to see who will attend. Shaw said she would email the wider task force after the meeting with details and asked anyone who attends to report back to the group so members could decide whether to pursue broader licensing or repeat screenings at libraries across the state.

Next steps: Task force members who plan to attend will register individually, Shaw will follow up with the film organizers about licensing and costs, and the task force will decide after viewing whether to propose statewide screenings or library showings.
