Warren Miller's "Line of Descent" at the cabot in Beverly Massachusetts

Come to the Firehouse center for the Arts for a showing of the latest Warren Miller Masterpiece!  Since 1949, ski families have cheered the official kickoff of winter with the ski film company that started it all. As the family grows, the traditions grow richer.  The annual tradition is back to salute the start of winter. The world’s biggest name in snowsports cinema—Warren Miller Entertainment—celebrates its 68th ski and snowboard film with downhill thrills, global adventure and a nod to those that taught us to slide on snow.
