Valley Place Arts Collaborative, a producing and presenting non-profit project in support of Ward 7 and Ward 8 artists and creative projects, is pleased to announce the winners of the first Anacostia Shorts Film Festival.

Wordplay is a monthly event for creatives that wish to test out excerpts of their work in front of a live audience. It is open to artists of all kinds: theater makers, poets, comics, writers, musicians, filmmakers etc… The only criteria is that it is your original work. There will be an online sign up sheet open to all. Each artist will be given up to 15 minutes of time to share whatever they are working on. It is free to the public and we welcome enthusiastic supporters!
