We can’t believe it’s February already! The MIX NYC team is busy preparing for another year of innovative programming. But we’re not done reminiscing about MIX FEST 2025 just yet. Here are a few more highlights from last year’s festival.

In a context where we are once again under attack and finding our rights being pushed back, we want to thank you all for being a very bright spot in our lives, for being the community we always imagined having.
Being in this practice of working together to ask and answer these questions makes us stronger as a community and ready for anything that can be thrown at us.
MIX was founded during a time of great loss and crisis, when AIDS both decimated the queer community and made it fiercely resilient.
We are all in a practice right now, a devoted habit of asking each other what we need, what we want to achieve, and how we can support each other to make them happen.
But beyond that, we’re creating one of the few spaces in our lives that isn’t fueled by capitalism – instead, it’s run by mutual aid and with care.
We brought together artists and revelers for three days of queer, experimental films and celebration.
On the surface, we’re putting on a queer experimental film festival. Showcasing work that won’t be bought and sold, all of us working without monetary pay.
That’s a wrap on MIX FEST 2025! 👏 Thank you to the community of experimental film lovers and filmmakers who came out this weekend and made MIX FEST 2025 a huge success.
The MIX team is immensely grateful and proud of what we all achieved at MIX FEST 2025.
We’re looking for volunteers to help with ticket-scanning, bartending, coat check, photography, set-up, breakdown, and more. Click through to our form for more details: forms.gle/xMGMEGqptpLb...
MIX FEST is back for our 2025 festival, November 20-22 at Quad Cinema, with afterparties at various locations.
Help bring MIX FEST 2025 to life by volunteering as part of our on-site teams!
