The Animators Town Hall is a FREE 1-day Community Plenary event designed for our local animation community.

It is meant to assist FAVA in understanding the community's needs with the purpose of better serving animators.

During the event, we aim to answer five key questions:

  1. What educational and training programming are we missing?
  2. What artist resources are we lacking?
  3. How can we help build community in a digital or physical space?
  4. What further professional development do animators need?
  5. In 5 years, where do animators need FAVA to be?

The event will consist of a welcome mixer, presentations from professional animators, focus groups, networking activities, film screenings, a catered lunch, and a final panel where attendees can ask questions of their own.
