The Stamped Film Festival is coming soon! From September 28th to October 1st, come out to the Pensacola Little Theatre to celebrate the artistic contributions of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) films and filmmakers. The festival began in 2012 and strives to foster a more inclusive local community. In fact, its current name, Stamped, is a throwback to the mid-1990s when LGBTQ visitors would “stamp” their money so that local officials and business owners would know the extent of the LGBTQ+ community’s economic impact.
Stamped is a multi-day festival that provides educational outreach to the Gulf Coast region. The festival is a celebration, acknowledgment, and remembrance for those in the community. There will be awards and prizes. The festival is free to attend, and offers a family-focused day that is acceptable for all ages. Visit the Stamped Film Festival website for more information, including the TBA film lineup.
