“While we are unable to host our traditional screenings this year, we are excited to honor the remarkable talent of our nominees and showcase their work to the community,” festival organizers stated.
The Gulf Coast Film and Video Festival has consistently focused on uplifting filmmakers by fostering creativity, education, and groundbreaking narratives. The gala on September 20 signifies yet another significant moment in its nearly thirty-year legacy of celebrating film excellence along the Texas Gulf Coast.
