Festival Operations and Hospitality:
And, of course, the festival would not have been possible without the work of a fine cadre of volunteers. Their efforts ran a wide and critical range - planning, advising, arranging and publicizing, schlepping and posting, ticket tearing and ushering, informing, schmoozing and hosting. Many, infinite thanks to... Patricia A., Patricia C., Brad, Susan Degnan, Joshua Hightower, Jane, Jess, Anne K., Alan Levy, L, Lola, Luis M., Juan P. John Pepper, Reuben, Mark S., Elizabeth Sheehan, Sherri, F. Leonora Solomon, Sissy Stephanie, Missy Stark, M.R. Stewart, Tom and Topaz.
For keeping our website ticking throughout the year, an endless, tequila-infused river of gratitude for Heow Goodman and Laura/ThreeDesignThree.
For coordinating a bang-up kick-off gala, Lola CherryCola and Selina Fire, with burlesque curation by Porno Jim.
For documenting our various hijinks and making sure we appear in the best light possible...much love to Stacie Joy with her amazing still photography, and to the industrious Bill C. ramping up our video unit and helping us all look sharp on the red carpet!
For surveying your insights on who you are and what you think of us, big smooches to Joshua Hightower.
Many thanks also to John Mhiripiri, Jed Rapfogel, Kolbe Resnick, Bradley Eros and all of the staff at Anthology Film Archives!
Kick-Off Gala:
In addition to our festival volunteers, thanks go to the wonderful crew at Taj, our party venue. And, of course, our fabulous kick-off performers - Kita St. Cyr, Ms. Minty Newport and Taradise, along with Giorgio Carpet and Strap-On Jo!
