Filmmaker Friday

Living behind the lens and in the editing bay can be lonely. That’s why we’re relaunching Grove’s Filmmaker Friday — a casual monthly meetup where local filmmakers, editors, producers, and storytellers can step out from behind the screen and connect with peers.

Join us at Common Good Bakery for pizza, drinks, and community. Whether you’re just starting out or you’ve been making films for years, Filmmaker Friday is a space to:

• Share your wins and challenges
• Meet collaborators and build your network
• Swap ideas, tips, and resources
• Simply feel less alone in the creative grind

This isn’t a panel or a pitch session — just a welcoming space for filmmakers to connect, recharge, and find support among peers.

Who Should Come?

• Filmmakers of all levels (directors, editors, writers, producers, crew)
• Students and emerging creatives
• Anyone passionate about film and storytelling

Grab a slice, pull up a chair, and join us for Filmmaker Friday. Let’s build a stronger, more connected Northern Michigan film community — together.
