Light House Studio is a nonprofit film center in downtown Charlottesville where local students from elementary school through college tell their own stories on film. This showcase covers the spectrum of what filmmakers of all ages created this year across Light House’s many programs.

You’ll see goofy comedies, imaginative animation, and satirical sci-fi created at Summer Film Academy, PSAs developed with local nonprofits to spread positive messages, thoughtful documentaries for school electives, and movies made in just 72 hours for the Adrenaline Film Project. The screening will be followed by a vote for the audience’s favorite film!
