Get ready for the 3rd Annual Artist Foundry Pitch Competition! On May 29th, a selected group of filmmakers will take the stage to pitch their projects to a panel of industry professionals—and get real-time feedback in front of a live audience. Top pitches will take home 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place prizes that will help them get their projects off the ground. And we’re keeping things lively with an open-mic segment for rapid-fire elevator pitches.
Whether you’re a filmmaker eager to get your project noticed, a film enthusiast curious about the important stories being told in our community, or simply an audience member seeking creative inspiration, this event promises a fun and energetic night for everyone.
For filmmakers looking to submit a pitch for consideration, make sure to save the following important dates:
- March 26th – Applications to pitch open
- April 23rd – Applications close
- May 14th – Mandatory Pitch Training session for selected participants
- May 29th – 2026 Artist Foundry Pitch Competition
