A Mission That Moves
FACTS Fest is more than a gala — it’s our response to the creative opportunity gap in underrepresented communities across Central Pennsylvania.
70% of FACTS participants identify as BIPOC or first-generation creatives. Yet, the entertainment industry remains one of the least diverse major sectors in the U.S.
Central PA has the talent, culture, and infrastructure to compete — but lacks the funding, visibility, and inclusive training pipelines to make it happen.
Your presence and support help fuel access, visibility, and generational impact.
At FACTS Fest, that change becomes tangible.
