Finally! Something Fun to do in January!


Come join me at the Bigfoot in Film festival January 29-31 at the Ned Smith Nature and Art Center in Millersburg, PA.

The fun filled weekend will feature films about Bigfoot (of course) and some notable speakers including Eric Altman and Loren Coleman!


Ned Smith Center has teamed up with Harrisburg film cooperative Moviate (presenters of the annual Side Street Cinema) to present its first ever film festival! The Bigfoot Film Festival is a fun event designed to explore the anomaly of "Bigfoot" and other natural folklore and how Bigfoot has been represented in film. Kitschy, campy films like "The Creature from Black Lake" and others will be shown, as well as documentary films on the Bigfoot phenomenon. Expert speakers will also be on hand, along with fun family activities.
