A celebration of student creativity and talent that gives students a chance to win prizes and have their voices heard!
“Beyond the Peaks” Film festival is a community-based showcase of art made by young filmmakers in the Adirondacks. It is being organized by AdkAction in partnership with Tupper Lake Central School District. The Festival will take place on May 10, 2019, from 5 pm – 8 pm at The Wild Center in Tupper Lake, NY. The festival will accept film submissions from area youth from all parts of the Adirondack North Country Region.
This event is free and open to the public. Filmmaking is an important artistic discipline that is underrepresented in rural America. We want to create and expand opportunities for young people in the Adirondacks interested in filmmaking or “digital storytelling.” We hope to build community around the arts by giving area youth a platform for creative expression and an opportunity to have their voices heard.
