It is not too early to get tickets and passes for the premier Cleveland film event of the year, the Cleveland International Film Festival. The festival, now in its 35th year, takes place this year in downtown Cleveland’s historic Tower City Center complex from March 24, 2011 – April 3, 2011.
The festival brings in visitors to Cleveland from around the world, including film directors, producers, and independent film aficionados who come for the entire 10 days and camp out at Tower City in between films. This year the film festival promises to be even more exciting than ever, with the ever popular short movies, and commercial showings, as well as new featured films. This year’s festival will show over 150 feature films, and 140 short subjects from over 60 countries.
The Cleveland International Film Festival continues to grow every year, with more and more attendance, and more special features. Look for interesting discussion forums with film producers, and special prizes and awards to promising filmmakers.
Side by side, at the same time as the Cleveland International Film Festival, also in Tower City Center, is the newer Tower City Arts Festival, run by festival promoter NorthCoast Promotions. This festival features art, jewelry, and food treats by regional artists and vendors. This is the 4th year of the Tower City Arts Festival, and it has quietly grown along with the Film Festival.
For film goers, the arts festival is the perfect break between films. They can browse art jewelry, shop for unique art gifts to take home with them, and discover neighborhood artists that they have never been introduced to before. In addition, there are usually some yummy treats like chocolate covered pretzels to be tasted.
