Join us for a special screening of Sawdust and Sand with Village Laguna and special guests Douglas Miller and Jason Blalock. Â
In 1970, freshly home from the Vietnam War, 23-year-old Douglas Miller drifted into Laguna Beach, CA. In the 54 years since then, he has painted 20,000 canvases and taken 500,000 photographs of his adopted hometown. Sawdust and Sand is an irreverent look at the world through an eccentric artist's eye. This documentary shows his enormous body of work to present a profound portrait of a California town and its people.

Village Laguna
Founded in 1971, Village Laguna is a non-profit mutual-benefit community organization begun when concerned citizens successfully opposed the construction of high-rise buildings along the legendary Laguna Beach coastline and helped create Main Beach Park. Since then, through participation in civic affairs and city decision making, Village Laguna continues to work to preserve, enhance, and celebrate the unique village character and cultural heritage of Laguna Beach; to foster community spirit and address social needs; and to restore and protect our ocean and coastal habitats.
