The Southern Maryland Film Festival Is Coming to Leonardtown!
Film submissions are currently being accepted for the Inaugural Southern Maryland Film Festival, to be held Saturday, July 11th, 2015 in Leonardtown, Maryland. Filmmakers of all ages and all levels of experience are invited to submit their own films to be shown at various locations throughout the town. Prizes will be awarded in several categories.
The Friends of the Leonardtown Theater is partnering with the Southern Maryland Film Society and the Town of Leonardtown’s Arts & Entertainment District to host the Festival, which is open to local film makers from – and films made in – Charles, Calvert and St. Mary’s Counties. Submission deadline is April 30, 2015. Those wishing to submit their film for consideration or to volunteer to help with the festival should go to www.smdfs.org .

Many thanks to Metrocast and Metrocast Channel 10 who have already signed on as a media sponsor, and to The Rex, Crazy Ewe, and Marrick Homes who have offered to be screening venues.
