The Cinema Arts Centre is Proud to Host the 15th Annual Huntington High School Film Festival

Support Huntington’s aspiring young filmmakers at this lively evening featuring the best movies made this year at Huntington High School! Enjoy a family evening out with free movies and support our talented local students

Admission is free. CLICK HERE to RSVP. The general public is welcome to attend as are entire families. The festival’s films will run for a total of about 60 minutes.

“I am very excited to assemble this year’s film festival," said art teacher Heather Swan, who leads Huntington High School’s video arts program. “We will be presenting a diverse compilation of 20 films that were produced by students representing all four of the video courses as well as a project by my media arts students. We are very fortunate and thankful to have the Cinema Arts Centre hosting this event, since the venue allows us to view the videos on an actual movie screen.”

The filmmakers include Landry Flynn, Sena Knopf, Riley LaCosta, Owen Stevens, Bladimir Cruz Serrano, Samuel Klaaren, Estefany Salamanca, Alex Tine, Cian Henrick, Ethan Ambrosio, Charles Stanforth, Eva Richter, Ella Van Horn, Joseph Tetrault, Daniel Sorto, Rory Ramirez Quantanilla and Michael Mendikyan.
