This festival is sponsored by The Capital Area Art Supervisors and The New York State Art
Teachers Association and was developed to provide students with a venue to explore and share their creative efforts in the media arts.
A panel of art educators from each school reviewed and selected the work for the show. Sixteen
participating schools submitted film, photography, animation, computer art and graphic design work. There are 180 works on display, and just under 90 minutes of film in the 2024 festival.
