Join OLLI for a special sneak peek presentation celebrating the American Documentary and Animation Film Festival (AmDocs)—one of the world’s leading festivals dedicated to documentary and animated filmmaking.

Founded in 2011 by Teddy Grouya, AmDocs was created to showcase and support independent filmmakers from around the world who bring awareness and understanding to important real-life stories and issues. Held annually in Palm Springs, the festival has grown into an internationally recognized destination for audiences who value powerful, independent storytelling.

From its inaugural festival in 2012—honoring Academy Award–winning filmmaker Oliver Stone—to today’s expansive international program, AmDocs has featured acclaimed guests and honorees including Dionne Warwick, George Takei, Ed Asner, Pierce Brosnan, Peter Coyote, Julie Cohen, and many others. Animated films became part of the festival beginning in 2013, further expanding its creative reach.

OLLI invites you to a special event celebrating A Night at the Disco—a dazzling visual chronicle of the 1970s, the decade that turned nightlife into a global cultural movement. Published by ACC Art Books, A Night at the Disco captures the energy, creativity, and freedom of an era when sound, fashion, and nightlife collided and changed popular culture for generations.

With an unprecedented archive of photographs featuring more than 100 artists, the book traces disco’s rise from intimate New York dance floors to legendary clubs around the world—showcasing the sound, style, and spirit that reshaped how the world listened, danced, and connected.
