Our 2025 GalaFest theme – House Party: Our House. Our Stories. Our Future — an expression of defiance, and a celebration of resilience.
At a time when public media and independent voices are under threat, we’re coming together to honor the filmmakers, storytellers, and communities that keep this work alive and recommit to the future we believe in.
