Ashfield is the birthplace of legendary director Cecil B. DeMille. DeMille’s family vacationed briefly here in August of 1881 before returning to their home in New York. In 2009, Tamsen had this idea: What could be better than to start a local festival of short films to honor the short time that the DeMille baby stayed in town? The purpose of the festival would be to develop the skills of aspiring videographers, like herself. She is especially pleased that the festival continues to offer first-time filmmakers, young and old, the opportunity and excitement of witnessing their project screened in Town Hall before an enthusiastic community audience. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59f29196a9db098a38787ebc/bbe661ca-3d6e-4cbf-ae3b-5d49372f34c7/ben-tobin.jpg Meet Our Team - Ben Tobin Ben Tobin is a filmmaker, photographer, and disability rights advocate.

June Millington and her sister Jean Millington were founding members of the legendary rock group Fanny, the first all-women band to issue an LP with a major record label (Warner/Reprise, 1970). Rolling Stone Magazine quoted David Bowie: “One of the most important female bands in American Rock has been buried without a trace: Fanny. They were one of the finest f#*@king bands of their time. They’re as important as anybody else who’s ever been, ever.” June later went on to establish the Institute of Musical Arts (IMA) in Goshen. https://www.ashfieldfilmfest.org/resources-1 daily 0.75 2025-08-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59f29196a9db098a38787ebc/1596675724899-BBBKGLLFAD3MVDGXCBQG/d6jXIi8.jpg Resources https://www.ashfieldfilmfest.org/media2 daily 0.75 2025-05-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59f29196a9db098a38787ebc/1541686967129-66PFKF9ZC5E2TMJRXL7K/dollies.jpeg Media https://www.ashfieldfilmfest.org/competition-shorts daily 0.75 2023-06-22 https://www.ashfieldfilmfest.org/feature-films daily 0.75 2023-06-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59f29196a9db098a38787ebc/c802a279-4bb2-47a0-9eb9-6c7630b71e1a/fanny-poster.png Feature Films - 2025 - Fanny: the Right to Rock A documentary film about the ground-breaking all women rock group Fanny.
