As you may have heard, Tim gets released from the prison system on April 21st, 2013 — one day before Earth Day. And we think it’s only appropriate to celebrate and welcome him home, with echoes of love resonating all over this land.

On Earth Day, PeaceUp is organizing a screening of Bidder70 in Salt Lake City: the first that Tim will be able to attend since the movie premiered last year! In conjunction with this event, the filmmakers (Beth & George Gage) have partnered with a film distributor, Gathr Films, to organize countrywide simultaneous theatrical screenings.

We invite YOU to BE THERE for Tim’s first PUBLIC APPEARANCE since his incarceration on July 26, 2011.
Check out the Map of Bidder 70 Screenings to find one near you.

From the screening in Salt Lake City, we will live-stream out the hour-long post-screening discussion and Q&A with Tim so that everyone, no matter where they are watching, will be able to participate: by watching and/or sending questions via Twitter. It wouldn’t be a true PeaceUp celebration without song, which is why we’ve invited our dear friend Bryan Cahall (whose song Arise you will recognize in the movie) to join us in a jam session as well.

Eager to get involved in making all of this happen? Great!
