The Student Union Art Gallery at UMass Amherst is proud to present our Spring Film Festival for emerging film-makers. This exhibition will run for two weeks, from March 21st to April 1st, with a closing reception event and screening on April 1st. During this time the gallery will host multiple mini-theaters running long loops of the selected films. Visitors will be able to drop in at any time during open hours (M-F 10-5pm) and experience a large selection of the curated works at their leisure. 

We are accepting short films, animations, experimental works, video essays/research, short documentaries, and video installations. Our jury panel of curators, film-makers, and media scholars are excited to receive works across a broad range of video and time-based media. We especially encourage works from emerging and student makers who are working in the Western Massachusetts area, but all submissions will be considered.
