Preston, Idaho’s most curious resident, Napoleon Dynamite, lives with his grandma and his 32-year-old brother (who cruises chat rooms for ladies) and works to help his best friend, Pedro, snatch the Student Body President title from mean teen Summer Wheatley.

On September 27th, the Mission’s iconic Foreign Cinema restaurant will welcome a new neighbor, Sherwood Design Engineers, an esteemed environmentally focused civil engineering firm. The two will share a fence, but they also share many values. Established leaders in their fields, Sherwood Design Engineers will mark its 15th year in business, while Foreign Cinema will mark its 19th. Both entities share a history of community service and are excited to join creative forces to celebrate and foster the diversity and beauty of the Mission.
The event will be a benefit supporting The Women’s Building, and its mission of advocating “self-determination, gender equality and social justice.” Inspired by the majestic mural covering The Women’s Building, we will be commissioning one for our own walls, and part of the evening’s proceeds will go toward a meaningful piece influenced by the art community of the Mission.
