Denver, CO —-- The 30th Starz Denver Film Festival and the International Animated Film Association (ASIFA) invite budding animators to participate in this year”s “”green-themed”” Animation Station workshops.

Each animator will also receive an invitation to a private screening of the finished works and a voucher to attend one film at the Starz FilmCenter. Three different workshops are offered for different age groups and all levels of talent are welcome. Instruction will be available in both English and Spanish at all of the workshops.

The Animation Station schedule is as follows:

Saturday, November 10 9am-12pm: Ages 6-11, $15 per person 1pm-4pm: Ages 12-18, $15 per person
