Hey, Tag! fans... you'll want to get tickets for this one!

What a program! Thanks to all involved including our review team, community collaborators, Events & Film, and our great audience. The biggest thanks go to the Clinton St. Theater and the amazing creators who shared their films. Thank you and follow us on filmfreeway.com/tagqsf for 2027 submissions!

Tag! QSF is heading into its second and last day, get a taste of all the queer genres we receive at 4pm and stay for the regional showcase at 7! A big THANKS to yesterday's participants and especially the great crowd at our adult block!

It's going to rain this weekend, which is why it's a perfect excuse to go to the great short films in @tagqsf.org. It's a really nicely curated festival full of work you aren't likely to see anywhere else. And it's broken up into four blocks so you can pick a theme if you don't have time for it all.

Tag! would like to thank our collaborators, sponsors, and vendors as we head into festival week. Much gratitude goes to our award sponsors @questcenter.bsky.social , @grandgesturebooks.bsky.social and Milagro!
