This weekend in LA 5/19: Saturday fun with Kids Film Festival

          Looking for something fun and different to do with the kids this weekend?  If your little one has big dreams of making or starring in films, the Kids Film Festival happening Saturday, May 19, in Santa Monica might be just the ticket.
          The festival features over thirty films from local children ranging in age from seven to 12.  They created storyboards, scripted, directed, starred in, and edited works that have been described by sponsoring organization Just Give Hugs Productions as “fun, silly, and magical.”  The films were given a “thumbs up” by Roger Ebert.
          The films were created as a part of the children’s participation in dramatic groups for young people including Venice Del Play, Drama Bee, and Venice Arts.  Moo Moo Musica is also co-sponsoring the event, which will be run by kids and teens.  Refreshments will be available for purchase.

When: Saturday, May 19 from 3:30 to 5:30 p.m.

Where: Mt. Olive Church, 1343 Ocean Park Blvd (& 14th), Santa Monica 90405

How much: Tickets are $5 for adults, $3 for kids. Children two and under are free.
