Description

Right now the world is on hold and the future seems uncertain during these unpredictable times. However, the team at Festival of Cinema continues to remain positive and optimistic that we will defeat this and that we as a species will come out of it triumphant. In the spirit of being an organization that brings art and culture to our society, we encourage all our friends, followers, families, filmmakers and artists alike to get innovative. We want you make the best of your time while fulfilling your duty to stay inside and help flatten the curve. This year the Festival of Cinema Annual Poster Contest is opened to everyone in NYC. No matter if you are young or old, a seasoned artist or a beginner - we want to see your work! Now is the chance to get those creative juices flowing. Send us your original artwork, that you feel will best represent our festival in 2020, and it can end up as the official festival poster! Imagine seeing your design on the red carpet, on our program guide, at venues, on street banners... and best of all, receiving TWO All-Access passes to attend every screening and event at this year’s Festival of Cinema NYC! We hope that you are staying safe and practicing social distancing. United we can beat this. Entries are now being accepted. All entries must be received by May 17, 2020. Please visit our website for Rules & Regulations. Now is the time to unleash your inner artist!
