Celebrate The Video Store Experience!
=0D=0A=VIDEO STORE DAY was started 6 years ago by Eyesore Cinema in Toronto (the rationale being “Why should record stores have all the fun?”) It is a celebration of the “Home Video Experience”, and the importance of the independently owned video rental service.
=0D=0A=This year will see iconic Victoria video store PIC-A-FLIC VIDEO join in this celebration. The store will be the venue for afternoon musical performances by local bands MY BOULDER HOUSE, THE CAVALEROS, and a special acoustic performance by ROB NESBITT (former Pic-A-Flic owner/BUM/THE SUITE SIXTEEN)
=0D=0A=Princessess from ENCHANTED FABLES will be stopping by in the morning to say hello to all, and pose for photos. FACECANDY will on hand to provide facepainting. Free popcorn, give-a-ways, and a raffle for prizes including art donated by TROUNCE ALLEY GALLERY will make this a fun filled event for everyone!
=0D=0A=PIC-A-FLIC VIDEO has been in operation in the Cook Street Village for over 30 years. As technology advances at a rapid pace, and the bombardment of digital content becomes overwhelming, PIC-A-FLIC offers a delightfully “old school” alternative to seeing a movie.
=0D=0A=With a library of over ten thousand titles from Hollywood and around the world, spanning back to the dawn of Cinema, PIC-A-FLIC has more than just unbeatable selection to offer. Human interaction. Face to face recommendations. Community. This is what a video store is. This is why we celebrate it.
