MIX NYC (est. 1987) is an entirely volunteer run 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to platforming, promoting, and supporting LGBTQIA2S+ experimental filmmakers and artists. Through our annual MIX FEST and year-round programming, we are committed to showing films that challenge conventional filmmaking practices, test bold ideas, and offer insight into the wide, evolving array of queer experience. ‍ MIX NYC was founded by author Sarah Schulman and filmmaker Jim Hubbard out of a need to make space for the lives and lens-based work of queer people during the onset of the AIDS epidemic. Today, we continue to provide opportunities for queer experimental filmmakers, and serve as an incubator for creativity by fostering collaboration, innovation, and dialogue amongst a community that seeks and values it.

MIX FEST 2026

MIX NYC (est. 1987) is the city’s home for queer, experimental film. At this year’s 39th annual festival, audiences will gather around experimental films that together offer a cross-section of contemporary queer and trans thinking, feeling, and living from around the world. Each evening will feature two thoughtfully curated programs followed by Q&As, culminating in an electrifying closing night party. On opening night, Maja Čule's debut feature film Electronic Witches (Elektroničke Vještice) kicks off the festival, followed by a shorts block that harkens back to MIX FEST’s past by offering an array of formal and conceptual approaches to matters of desire, sex, romance, and love. The second night begins with Diego Semerene's singular feature Portrait of the Father at 71, in which the filmmaker's father reacts to a task he was given 20 years prior: to play the role of his son's various lovers on screen. Friday evening's late slot extends ideas of family from the biological to the chosen, the living to the ancestral, and the spirited to the scarring. Closing night explores apocalyptic observations, late capitalist nightmares, and the necessity of resistance before taking a final plunge through a series of portals that seek to facilitate different forms of transcendence.
