FilmGate Festival

For one afternoon/evening, we’re rolling clips instead of carpets, featuring a curated selection of short films created by Florida filmmakers or shot in Florida. From intimate character stories to bold visual experiments, this mini-program spotlights the voices, cultures, and communities that make our state unlike anywhere else.

Unlike our full festival nights (which feature live Q&As, jury awards, and a full program), this Open House edition is a laid-back, watch-and-enjoy experience:

- Curated shorts from local Florida talent

- Drop-in-friendly screening vibe

- Complimentary mini bags of popcorn while you watch

Whether you’re a filmmaker, film lover, or just Open House–curious, come discover how Florida tells its own stories on the big screen.

Know what’s Happening Next — before everyone else does.
