Piedmont Park Conservancy President and CEO Yvette Bowden tells Maria Saporta that the semi-annual outdoor movie festival in the city’s most iconic greenspace won’t take place this year because of sponsorship woes. There is, however, still “Queens on the Green.” Debbie Michaud has the details at Screen Grab.

You’ll recall that SOTG almost didn’t happen last year because of similar issues but was saved at the last minute - to much fanfare - by corporate sponsors. Anyone wanna bet some companies learned a valuable PR lesson and try to do the same?
