EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT FILM FESTIVAL STRATEGY
The Gathering House, Downtown Cary Park | 90 minutes | Workshop
Instructor: Crickett Rumley
Lunch Provided
In this master class, you’ll learn how to develop a film festival strategy that works for you and your short film and will help you achieve your goals. We’ll bust common myths about how festivals work, discuss methods for sorting high value film festivals from scams and fake awards, unpack how to navigate premiere status requirements, and identify trends in marketing and exhibition. We’ll also discuss the three things you absolutely need to do before attending a film festival so that you can maximize your time there.

🎼The Cary Theater is excited to welcome local favorite @kyshonamusic to the stage!
Kyshona’s music creates space—for stories that are often overlooked, for voices that deserve to be heard, and for anyone who’s ever felt silenced or unseen. Her journey began not on a stage, but in hospitals and correctional facilities, where she worked as a music therapist and wrote her first songs with the students and inmates in her care.
Since then, she balances her music career with her passion to heal in community through her organization Your Song.
If you missed her Juneteenth Performance at DukeArts Music In The Gardens in 2024, be sure to grab a ticket for SEP 18!
