  • 4/28 Lunafest

    It’s time for LUNAFEST 2021!  Wednesday, April 28

    Now in its 20th year, LUNAFEST was the first traveling film festival celebrating stories by women, about women. We hope you will join us to hear these powerful untold stories & together we'll raise awareness, support the UCONN WOMEN’S CENTER, and champion change directly with our community.

    The 2021 Season features seven (7) short films will compel discussion, make you laugh, tug at your heartstrings and motivate you to make a difference in your community. Incredibly diverse in style and content, LUNAFEST is united by a common thread of exceptional storytelling - by, for and about women. Collectively, LUNAFEST films captivate audiences, compel dialogue and arm those who participate with both the knowledge and the motivation to make a difference in their communities.
