Muzeo Presents in Association with Vans and The Frida Cinema, Never Catch Pigeons: And Eleven More Hard Lessons from Mr. Paul Van Doren!  

Find out how a hardscrabble shoemaker from New England defied expectations and invented the ultimate Southern California lifestyle brand: Vans. Paul Van Doren never skateboarded, surfed, snowboarded, or flipped a BMX bike, but his simple, rubber-soled sneaker from 1966 has been at the heart of the global action-sports movement for half a century.

This is the candid, comedic, and occasionally tragic portrait of Paul and his company, some of the world-renowned athletes he inspired, and the hard lessons he’s learned along the way, including why you must NEVER CATCH PIGEONS! And make sure to stick around after the screening, as there will be a Q&A with special guests Steve & Cheryl Van Doren, moderated by Catherine Acosta, Vans Global Brand Archivist & Historian! This event is presented at The Frida Cinema, 305 E. 4th Street, Santa Ana, CA  92701,
