NewFest: The NY LGBT Film Festival

I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

As New York City's premier LGBT film organization, NewFest empowers, educates, entertains, and provokes the culturally rich and diverse communities of the greater metropolitan region. Through our annual film festival and year-round programming, NewFest showcases international, US, and local film, video, and other media, fostering a greater sense of awareness and community among LGBT and LGBT-friendly audiences.
NewFest's year-round programming includes the annual NewFest: The New York Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, & Transgender Film Festival, one of the most comprehensive showcases of international LGBT film/video in the world; NewFest's Filmmakers Forum , a panel and workshop series bringing audiences together with filmmakers and industry; NewFest@BAM, an annual "Best of NewFest" showcase at the landmark Brooklyn Academy of Music's Rose Cinemas; and NewFest at the IFC Center, a monthly LGBT programming series in Manhattan's Greenwich Village.
