We have more events to look forward to in 2025-26! Check back at our website for more details. We are excited to meet you and share in the efforts to preserve lesbian history.
The June L Mazer Lesbian Archives is hosting a Lesbian Short Film Festival - April 25-26th, 2026 at the Pacific Design Center for Lesbian Visibility Week.
The short film festival will include archival shorts selected from our collection from filmmaker, Rosser Goodman who programmed archival shorts for Film Fatale. Film Fatale, founded in 1997, was a monthly screening series and networking event for women-centric films. These films were shown at the Palms bar and Highways throughout the early 2000s.
The Mazer Lesbian Archives is recreating the magic of Film Fatale while welcoming new and emerging filmmakers to the table. We are seeking short films under 20 minutes from the Lesbian, sapphic and queer women world.
Please submit your films here: Submission Form
Submissions close January 31, 2026.
Tickets will go on sale soon!
