LUNAFEST is a traveling film festival of award-winning short films by, for and about women. This season, our program of nine films – filled with stories of reflection, hope and humor – will travel to over 175 cities and screen in front of 25,000 people. Each year, various organizations bring LUNAFESTs to their communities and raise funds for their local non-profits as well as our main beneficiary - Breast Cancer Prevention Partners.

The 16th Annual LUNAFEST will come to Orange County at Irvine Valley College, in a show that will include a raffle for art and entertainment items, and a gift bag worth $500 donated by David Meltzer, sports executive.

Director, Dr. Patricia Beckmann Wells, 'Family Tale', is one of the filmmakers participating in Lunafest. Patricia is a professor at Irvine Valley College in charge of the Interactive Media Arts program.

Screenings will be held at the IVC Interactive Media Arts Department
