New York International Children's Film Festival

Downtown’s calendar gets a little brighter with a festival that curates kid-friendly activities and screenings. It occupies an office at 225 Broadway #2730, New York, NY 10007—a address easy to remember for anyone navigating the Financial District.

Children’s programming often struggles to feel both imaginative and thoughtful; this event leans into both. The International angle means selections that might otherwise elude younger audiences stateside.

Getting there is simple: the New York International Children's Film Festival sits above the subway lines that thread through lower Manhattan. A quick check of directions confirms it.

Questions about participation or schedules can be routed to (212) 349-0330; the line connects directly to the festival’s staff.
