Arkansas Shorts: Scheduled for January 4, 2020

Low Key Arts and Superior Bathhouse Brewery present the 13th annual Arkansas Shorts: A Night of Short Film festival on Saturday, January 4, 2020, at the historic Malco Theatre (817 Central Avenue) in downtown Hot Springs.

Directed once again by acclaimed Hot Springs filmmaker, Jen Gerber, Arkansas Shorts is the only festival of its kind in the state and showcases emerging talent from far and wide. It’s also a great way to celebrate a new year, Hot Springs style.

Similar to previous years, the festival features three blocks of short films presented over the course of the evening: an International block containing a grab bag of subjects from around the world curated by programmer Chris Wilks; a North American block featuring high-profile, award-winning work from around the US and Canada; and, of course, the juried selection of Arkansas-made short films, including those produced in this year’s Inception to Projection filmmaking program, right here in Hot Springs.

This Arkansas Shorts will feature more films than ever before and the day’s schedule will be adjusted accordingly. A complete schedule will be published in December.

The festival is sponsored by Superior Bathhouse Brewery. The Brewery will host an afterparty immediately following the last film. For further info, please contact lowkeyarts@lowkeyarts.org.
