Do your part with Crossroads

We need your assistance to carry on the Festival's quest of great independent films. The Crossroads Festival Committee screens hundreds of films, devises print and video publicity, sends out acceptance letters, and arranges hospitality, filmmaking workshops, receptions, parties, and music. Finally, the festival arrives and we run the projectors, sell the tickets, and - most importantly - welcome filmmakers from around the country and the world to Jackson, Mississippi. It's a big job, and helpers are always welcome.

If you've ever thought about joining the Crossroads committee, now is the time. Click the "Take Part" tab above for more information.
