January marks a huge milestone for Aultsville Theatre with the return of The Aultsville Filmfest January 24-26th! As we mark the return of our signature fundraiser, we are pleased to have partnered with the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) Film Circuit to bring this year’s event to Cornwall audiences.
Thanks to the hard work of our planning committee the countdown is on to our red-carpet opening night reception on Friday, January 24. The event will offer the chance for guests to dress up and walk the red carpet, posing for photos in front of our media wall just like the stars at TIFF. Cocktails, and light snacks will be available during the reception beginning at 6:30pm until the screening begins at 8:00pm. Tickets for opening night are available for $40.00 (+ fees) and must be purchased in advance.
The films chosen for this year’s event will focus on our unofficial theme of TRUCE (Tolerance, Respect, Understanding, Compassion, and Empathy) showcasing films that touch on social issues that impact our community.
