The City of Columbia will be holding a Film Festival June 19-20, 2025. It will be held at the Slider Auditorium on the campus of Lindsey Wilson College.
The film festival currently will focus on two films.
Jenna Snow Grant, who is a native of Columbia, Kentucky, and is a recent graduate of Belmont University in Nashville, Tennessee, will be showcasing her film, “The Crow,” on Thursday, June 19. There will be a reception and meet and greet starting at 6 p.m.
Lance Burton, local resident and Master Magician, will be showing his film, Billy Topit, on Friday afternoon. This will be a matinee showing for children. There will be a reception from 4 p.m. until 5 p.m. followed by the showing.
All events are free to the public. If you are planning on attending, you will need to reserve tickets.
Tickets will be available at City Hall in Columbia (and, possibly a couple of other locations).
“We appreciate the volunteers and partners in this project,” stated Mayor Hoots. “Lindsey Wilson College will be partnering with us and showing this at the Slider Auditorium. We have representatives to assist with the receptions on both evenings. The local Adair County Arts Council will be helping with promotion and a preliminary reception.”
The City of Columbia encourages residents to participate.
