The annual Student Film Festival in Emmaus is a chance to promote inclusivity and artistic in the community with films made by students from various age groups. The goal is to offer students interested in various areas of film creation an opportunity to showcase their work, engage with their peers in collaborative and creative ways, and potentially win an award. Students are encouraged to work with friends from any school or grade as long as most members meet the required age, grade and location requirements. This event celebrates the creativity, teamwork and dedication to the arts, cinema, and design abilities of our youth in the greater Lehigh Valley area.
