Mini-Episode: Open World Animation Fest 2024

Open World Animation Festival is an annual festival dedicated to showcasing cutting edge animation from across the world! The 2024 festival takes place October 24th-27th at the historic Roxy Theatre in Northampton, PA. 

OPEN WORLD ANIMATION FESTIVAL ENCOURAGES CREATORS TO EXPLORE THE FRONTIERS OF ANIMATION THROUGH BOTH TRADITIONAL & EMERGING MEDIUMS.
