Orange Film and Arts Festival

The Orange Film and Arts Festival is a new multi-arts festival in historic downtown Orange, in Southeast Texas, built around film but also covering podcasts, visual and mural art, panels, workshops and a youth arts education program. Its film competition takes narrative and documentary shorts and features, micro-documentaries, student films and screenplays for shorts, features and TV pilots. Screenings are held at the Shahan Event Center at Lamar State College Orange. The first edition is November 5–8, 2026, per FilmFreeway, though the festival's own site also gives November 5–7. Submissions for 2026 closed in October.
