For those of you who missed it highlights are below:

The 11th annual Patriot-News Artsfest Film Festival will be the biggest ever. More films, fun, and special events. This year’s festival features an appearance by Warhol Factory luminary Taylor Mead, star of the Warhol’s first commercial film, Tarzan and Jane Revisited…Sort of. Taylor Mead will enthrall audiences with his stories from the heyday of Andy Warhol’s New York City adventures. He’ll also perform his poetry at a special reception.

Warhol’s classic arthouse film Chelsea Girls will also be screened. The festival’s annual “Midnight Madness at the Midtown” will feature David Lynch’s cult classic Eraserhead, shown in its full 35mm glory. This year, more than 80 films from around the world will be screened, many of which are world premieres. Most films will be screened at the Whitaker Center for Science and the Arts, in Stage Two and the Cobalt Room.
