Launch Party
What’s a film festival without a launch party? It’s not a film festival. The launch features a live performance by Maestro the Cellist. Don’t worry, he’s not playing classical music for you to go asleep standing up, he is playing the best of Pop, R&B, and Hip Hop. Maestro the Cellist is not coming alone. When Maestro is not performing, music will be provided by the top female dj, DJ Maiya. Entry is free for all passholders and $25 for everyone else, but you can also be a passholder by visiting the homepage and purchasing one of the two types of passes: All Access or Movie Buff. Passholders also receive one drink ticket.
