2026 Kentucky High School Film Festival is Now Complete!

One our favorite experiences every year is the short film festival we hold for high school students from across the state of Kentucky. We want to congratulate this year’s award-winning films: 1st: “Imbalanced,” 2nd: “Flicker,” 3rd: “The Saddest Animal.” This year, we received over 125 submissions and screened all finalists at the Farish Theater in Downtown Lexington, KY. Special thanks to LexArts for their support.
