Release your inner critic!

Open minds are mandatory!

The Providence Children’s Film Festival is a COMMUNITY film festival. Welcoming folks from our communities to assist in selecting films is a no-brainah! Registration for the 2026 Jury is open for veterans to rejoin and new members to dive in. Your voice matters to us as we select which films to invite to our annual festival. Jurors can watch and rate films in person at our Community Jury Nights, or from home via our online submission system, or both! Kid’s voices are encouraged and our most valued – they are the reason we do what we do, after all!

All ages welcome.

 

Community Jury Nights

A great way to meet other jurors of all ages, watch and discuss film submissions together, while noshing on pizza.
Fun, enlightening, and kids always share their feedback first, making it empowering and memorable!

Thank you to our incredible partners, The Providence Athenaeum, the Providence Country Day School, and the East Providence Public Library’s Fuller Creative Learning Center for hosting us!
