Our Mission Statement:

The mission of the West Chester Film Festival is to Entertain, Enlighten and Educate the public through the presentation of global independent and innovative short film and interactive workshops by presenting an annual international short film festival.  Our goal is to present a self-sustaining annual film festival giving a voice to up-and-coming artists. The West Chester Film Festival is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization.

Join us for a weekend every April* for the annual West Chester Film Festival.  We will screen short films, up to 30 minutes in length, submitted by independent filmmakers from around the world. Submissions are juried by a panel of industry professionals and winners chosen according to content, innovation and technical execution.  We anticipate attendance of 3,000 film lovers this year.
