Sept. 30 through Sept. Oct. 2 — Oxnard Performing Arts Center (OPAC) presents Sight + Sound Film Festival Returns

Oxnard Performing Arts Center Corporation’s (OPAC) annual Sight + Sound Film Festival hits screens across the city of Oxnard later this month after a multi-year COVID-19 hiatus. The event returns September 30 – October 2, 2022 and will be held in three different venues: Friday at OPAC, Saturday at Oxnard College, and Sunday at Plaza Cinemas in downtown. Tickets start at just $10 and students will receive free admission thanks to this year’s presenting sponsor, Oxnard College. Day-of festivalgoers can also get free admission if they walk, bike, or take public transit as part of California Clean Air Day. Tickets are on sale now at sightplussound.com.

The festival melds the sites/sights and sounds of the City through the chosen locations, curated independent films – narratives, documentaries, music videos, shorts, student works, and others – as well as through afterparties with live music (co-produced with Midnight Society Productions) and interactive activities throughout the day. Sight + Sound was inspired by the incredible local talent in Ventura County as well as the robust Film, Television, and Electronic Media program at Oxnard College and aims to nurture and support a strong network of cultural creatives in our community.
