SHORT CUTS juror Lilan Yang will present their performance Untitled Film Disinfection Project on Saturday, October 3, 2026 at 7PM. This is a live 16mm performance.
SHORT CUTS and its festival weekend programming are made possible in part by public funding from the Ohio Arts Council (OAC) through the ARTStart program, supporting arts organizations and opportunities that strengthen Ohio communities culturally, educationally, and economically, with additional support from the Neighbor Up Action Grant.
Generous community support is also provided by duck-rabbit coffee, Clash Vintage, Hearn Plumbing & Heating, and our individual and community sponsors. Together, this support allows SHED Projects to present the entire SHORT CUTS festival weekend completely free and open to the public—an essential part of our commitment to creating accessible opportunities to experience experimental film, moving-image work, and artist-led programming.
