Podcast Host Intro: State of Art – Pueblo Film Fest Edition
Welcome to State of Art, the official podcast of the Pueblo Star Journal, where we celebrate the people and projects shaping the creative spirit of Southern Colorado. I’m your host, Bree Pappan, writer of the monthly State of Art feature in the PSJ.
Today, we’re focusing on one of the region’s most exciting cultural events — the Pueblo Film Fest, returning April 24–27, 2025. I’m joined by two dynamic voices from the festival’s Board of Directors: Kennedy Pugh and Chili Cilch. Together, we explore how this annual festival is building a cinematic bridge between Pueblo and the global film community.
We talk about the origins of the festival, what’s new this year, and how film can bring people together through shared stories and bold artistic expression. Whether you're a filmmaker, a film lover, or simply someone who believes in the power of community through art — this one’s for you.
And don’t forget! Tomorrow, April 19, is the Join or Die documentary screening and the official launch of ClubCon.org — a new initiative to bring together clubs and organizations across Pueblo. This free community event runs from 2 to 6 p.m. at the Sangre de Cristo Arts and Conference Center. Come be part of the conversation and discover how you can get involved!
