Storytelling is one of the most powerful ways we connect, challenge perspectives, and explore identity. Whether through personal documentaries, experimental visuals, or boundary-pushing narratives, film allows us to see the world through each other’s eyes. That’s why we’re thrilled to introduce Reel Stories: A
Night of Local Filmmaking—a celebration of the creativity and talent within our own community.
This event isn’t just about watching films; it’s about amplifying the voices of local artists, providing a platform for underrepresented stories, and creating a space where filmmakers and audiences can engage in meaningful conversations.

Why Supporting Local Artists Matters
Every film screened at Reel Stories represents hours of dedication, passion, and artistic vision. By attending, submitting, or simply spreading the word, you’re helping create a thriving creative ecosystem—one where alternative voices are heard, and local talent gets the recognition it deserves.
Independent filmmakers often lack access to traditional distribution channels, making events like these crucial for exposure and growth. When you support local artists, you’re not just watching a film; you’re validating their work, fostering community, and encouraging future creations.
Join Us for an Unforgettable Night!
Even if you’re not submitting a film, we’d love to see you at Reel Stories. Expect a cozy screening atmosphere, thought-provoking films, lively discussions, and the chance to connect with incredible creative minds.
Submissions can be made here.
Let’s make this a night to remember. Submit your film, spread the word, and come celebrate the incredible talent in our community!
