Space, Hope & Charity

An independent documentary film about Charity Woodrum, a young woman from rural Oregon whose dream of becoming an astrophysicist is nearly derailed when she suffers a devastating tragedy. Charity was a nontraditional university student, raised in poverty, the first in her family to graduate from high school. In her mid-20s, she was married and nine months pregnant when she decided to return to school to study physics. Life felt perfect. Then, what she calls "The Worst Day." Her world was destroyed. With help from friends old and new, she finds her way back to the distant galaxies where she feels most at peace.

Q&A with Dr. Charity Woodrum, Dr. Scott Fisher, and Director/Producer Sandy Cummings. Go behind-the-scenes of the remarkable story of Charity Woodrum’s journey through poverty and tragedy as she chases her dream working for NASA. Ask your questions and share the inspiring experiences of resilience, human connection, and the wonder of space exploration.

Tickets: $30, Student Prices Available! (plus $6 Historic Preservation fee)
