Hosted by Peninsula Open Space Trust (POST) and community partners\, this special in-person event invites people of all ages to experience powerful short films that celebrate diverse voices and experiences in the outdoors. \nTaking place from 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m.\, the fourth annual Representation Matters Film Festival offers an opportunity to enjoy compelling stories while connecting with neighbors\, local organizations\, and fellow community members.

The featured stories explore a variety of important and inspiring themes\, including recreation\, activism\, community\, Indigenous culture\, belonging\, and more. \nRather than simply watching a collection of films\, attendees can expect an evening that encourages conversation\, connection\, and a deeper appreciation for the many ways people interact with the natural world. \nEnjoy the Films Under the Evening Sky\nThe in-person festival will feature an outdoor screening at Devil’s Canyon Brewing Company\, creating a relaxed atmosphere for enjoying these remarkable stories with family and friends. \nBecause the event will take place outdoors\, guests are encouraged to dress in layers and prepare for changing evening temperatures. Arriving early is also a great idea\, giving attendees time to find a comfortable seat\, explore partner booths\, grab some food\, and order their favorite beverages before the film program begins. \nFree pizza will be available while supplies last\, while beer and other hot and cold beverages will be available for purchase. \nConnect With the Community\nOne of the highlights of Representation Matters Film Festival 2026 is the opportunity to connect with organizations working to strengthen communities and protect the outdoors. \nCommunity partners will have booths at the event where guests can learn more about local organizations\, discover opportunities to get involved\, and connect with people who share an interest in nature\, conservation\, and community engagement. \nThis year’s community partners include Santa Clara Valley Bird Alliance\, Bay Area Ridge Trail\, Things That Creep\, and Climate Resilient Communities. \nWhether you are passionate about environmental causes\, interested in outdoor recreation\, or simply looking for an enjoyable community event\, the festival provides plenty of opportunities to meet new people and discover ways to become more involved. \nA Family-Friendly Evening\nRepresentation Matters Film Festival 2026 welcomes families\, making it an excellent opportunity for parents and children to enjoy an evening together. \nKids are welcome\, and service animals and well-behaved pets can also attend. With free pizza\, drinks available for purchase\, outdoor movies\, and community activities\, the event offers something for a wide range of attendees. \nThe festival is also committed to making the experience welcoming and comfortable for everyone.
