Such an amazing turnout tonight for our first "Popcorn Social" event hosted in conjunction with FestivALL at Goldenrod Kitchen and Elk City Popcorn Company! The free screening of PRACTICAL MAGIC was a huge hit as were the non-alcoholic margaritas we distributed at the appropriate time in the film. We had a lot of fun and it feels like the start of a cool new tradition for FestivFALL.

LIKE A MOTH TO A FILM... 🎞

We are thrilled to reveal the official poster for the 2026 West Virginia International Film Festival, coming to Charleston November 12-15!

Inspired by the moths and forests of Appalachia, this year's artwork captures something we love about cinema: gathering in the darkness, drawn toward the light and the stories it brings to life.

Early Bird Festival passes are available now through October 12th. Get yours at https://wviff.org/ and join us for four days of exceptional cinema from West Virginia and around the world.

The full festival lineup and schedule will be announced the first week of October!

Special thanks to Megan Dailey Illustration for the amazing artwork!
