LISFF presents The Best of 2015
The Benevolent & Protective Order of Elks #134 Membership Committee presents Free Short Films for First Friday from the Lancaster International Short Film Festival.
2 Sept 2016 | 7-11pm Free for First Friday
The Lancaster International Short Film Festival (LISFF) will present two set of amazing short films --the 2015 Award Winners --from both local and global filmmakers. Drama, Comedy, Animation, Documentary and Horror films will be presented in two pods of short films with an intermission between them. (See list of films to be presented below.) We expect to have some Lodge representatives on hand to give tours and explain the benefits of membership during the intermission.
The 2016 Film Festival will occur from 20-22 October 2016 at the Elk's.
On this page you can purchase Early Bird Passes to the 2016 festival. Early Bird passes (special reduced prices) will be on sale until 15 September 2016. It may be a bit confusing as we are selling passes for the film festival along with this FREE event. We understand the ticket you print out for the passes will say Best of 2015 (this event.) You will trade your receipt for a real laminated pass when you first attend in October.
