The El Dorado Film Festival is this Friday

The 13th Annual EL DORADO FILM FESTIVAL will be held this Friday evening (April 29th) here on campus at the Performing Arts Center. The red carpet receptions begins at 6pm just outside the PAC doors and features the talented performing group THE KYLE REED EXPERIENCE as entertainment. Doors open at 6:45 and the show is scheduled to start promptly at 7pm. We expect the show to last a little over 2 hours with a short intermission. We had over 70 entries this year - only the top films in each category will be screened.

Admission is free, but $5 donations are suggested to help support our film programs here at EDHS.

An extensive group of video production alumni and EDHS faculty served as our jury this year. The following nominated films will be screened:
