Ohio Shorts 2016

Celebrate the vibrant culture of local filmmaking with our annual festival of Ohio-made short films. All entries are produced in the Buckeye State and span documentary, animation, dramatic narrative, and everything in-between. The festival includes jury and audience-awarded cash prizes, which will be announced at a public reception in our lower lobby following the screening that features a free Dirty Franks hot dog bar (complete with vegan and gluten-free options, tater tots, and more) and a cash bar for you to enjoy.
