Kaleidoscope LGBT Film Festival

Thursday, 21 August 2025 until Sunday, 24 August 2025

The Kaleidoscope LGBTQ+ Film Festival is a celebration of LGBTQ+ films, filmmakers, and stories from around the world. With a mission to provide innovative, unique, and diverse programming we hope to engage the hearts and minds of audiences in Arkansas and the surrounding region.
