Help Us Go

to New York!

Maci Johnsey, Anna Crosson, Anna Hathorn, Ash Arrington

Anna Claire Hathorn and Anna Crosson have poured their hearts into the growth and development of Spotlight Studio, shaping it into the vibrant community it is today. This year marks their final opportunity to attend The All-American High School Film Festival as filmmakers, as they embark on new journeys in college and beyond. CEPA is deeply committed to giving these passionate, dedicated students the chance to experience this incredible opportunity one last time. Your generous donation would mean the world to them and to the future of Spotlight Studio. We hope you'll consider supporting their dreams!

Neighborly is Going to New York!

We're thrilled to announce that four of our talented filmmakers have been selected to showcase their film, Neighborly, at the prestigious All-American High School Film Festival in New York City from October 18th to 20th, 2024. This is an incredible opportunity for them to connect with other young filmmakers, learn from industry professionals, and experience the magic of the film capital of the world. But we need your help to make it happen!

Your generous donation will help cover travel expenses, accommodation, and festival passes, allowing our students to attend and screen their film in the legendary AMC Theater in Times Square. Any amount makes a difference and brings us one step closer to making this dream a reality. Thank you for your support!

We also will accept donations via cash or check. Our office address is 25 Williamson Dr, Pell City, AL 35125. Donations can be mailed or delivered during office hours.

Our goal is to raise $7,000.
