Now in its tenth year, the KIDS FIRST! Film Festival is a showcase for new and classic children's films, TV shows and DVDs from studios, independent producers and youth producers worldwide that travels to more than 100 venues annually and has more than 10,000 screenings of individual titles throughout the year. Youth are given a true voice - as curators of the Festival, panelists critiquing films, volunteer staff and as filmmakers and videographers showing their work.

A Traveling Festival

The KIDS FIRST! Film Festival is hosted locally by established film festivals, art and children's museums, nonprofit film centers, libraries, schools, and other local organizations.
