SAY IT, DON’T SPRAY IT.

COVID has been wild lately. As that old saying goes, “When in the DMV … follow our current health and safety measures of our local government.” As of July 2024, sites say community levels are low.

If you’re feeling any type of symptom, it’s probably best that you stay home. We are sorry you’ll miss all the fun, but we won’t have any fun if something nasty spreads. We’ve all got to look out for each other, right?! Your health is the most important to us … so stay home, rest, hydrate, and all that good stuff. And no worries, the films will be available to you after the festival!

For those of you choosing to hang out with us, please wash and sanitize your hands frequently during your visit. Looking like a ninja is cool, but masks aren’t currently required in our venues – but we encourage it, and like the style.
