ROUND TOP FILM FESTIVAl in the PRESS

Round Top Film Festival brings vibrant cinematic charm to the Texas Hill Country for the second year

The smallest incorporated town in Texas, with approximately 90 residents, Round Top is well known for its annual antique markets. To further establish Round Top as a cultural destination, Shanna launched the Round Top Film Festival with a highly successful first year slate that was fueled by their highly successful kickoff gala that successfuly drew film patrons from around Texas.

The Round Top Film Festival is making a grand return this fall, promising a lineup of exciting events, must-see screenings, and a celebration of cinema that fans won't want to miss.

Festival co-founder Shanna Schanen shared insights into the festival's origins and what inspired its creation.

Big cities and tourist hot spots have their well-earned appeal, but sometimes you just want to enjoy your coastal mansion in peace. It’s a sentiment baked into the smaller, quieter communities that share enough cultural DNA with their buzzier brethren, minus the hordes of travelers, skyrocketing room rates and ticket queues.
