Due to the Coronavirus Pandemic, we have rescheduled the Asheville 48HFP from the original June dates to August 7 - 9, 2020.
The COVID-19 virus has affected events all around the globe and we face an unknown time frame for how long closures and quarantines will stay in effect. We have made a commitment to protect the health of our filmmakers and the general public by deciding to reschedule our events to help prevent any further outbreak of the virus.
To be the first to find out any future updates as we continue to make plans:
We love films and the people who make them, and our hope is to keep everyone safe and happy and making awesome 48-hour films throughout the year!
