Housed in the historic Parkway Theater, the Maryland Film Festival’s programming has expanded upon the more traditional festival screenings and filmmaker conversations to include year-round programming of films and artist-led events specific to the festival’s new facility and in response to the needs of local, experimental filmmakers. The programming is comprised of three distinct screening series: Sight Unseen focuses on experimental uses of narrative, sound, and interactivity in contemporary film and video; Sweaty Eyeballs presents innovative new works in animation, which has expanded to include an annual festival of experimental animation; and Breaking Codes, an ambitious series for new work in expanded cinema.

“The Warhol Foundation aims to support the full range of artistic activity in America—from exhibitions at major museums to neighborhood projects by artist collectives. Arts writers, through the range and specialization of their individual interests, touch upon all of this activity—illuminating and interrogating it and bringing it into conversation with the public. Support for artists is not complete without support for the circulation and serious consideration of their ideas. The Arts Writers Grant program keeps artists at the center of cultural dialogue and debate—in our opinion, right where they belong.”
