The Jaxon
Film Fest launched in 2012 as south-central Michigan’s
premier film and music festival. Held within approximately a
forty mile radius of several key Michigan cities that extend
like the ends on the spokes on a wheel, Jackson,
Michigan is the hub.
Jackson is an almost equal distance from the state capital, the
homes of three state universities, Lansing (home of Michigan
State University), Ann Arbor (home of the University of
Michigan), and Kalamazoo (the home of Western Michigan
University), and just thirty miles north of two state lines.
Jackson is in an ideal location to become the center of Michigan’s
film and music industries.
This years Jaxon Film Fest is September 28-29th, 2013, at
the historic Michigan Theatre, 124 North Mechanic Street, with
other activities taking place throughout the city of Jackson.
With a focus on Michigan films, the Jaxon Film Fest will also
screen the very best of independent and foreign features,
documentaries, shorts and students films from around the world,
and is dedicated to bringing quality foreign and independent
films to the state of Michigan in order to expose our audience
to diverse cultures, ideas, and creative works.
