To the TIGLFF Family,

I hope this message finds you safe and well. Due to the ongoing recovery efforts in our community following the harsh impact of Hurricane Milton, we have decided to cancel the Clueless screening, originally scheduled for this Sunday, October 20th, at 3 p.m.

While we are deeply committed to our community film screenings and continue to work on providing a safe space for LGTBTQ+ community members and allies to gather around film, we must also recognize the importance of prioritizing the well-being and recovery of our community during this challenging time. Many of our friends, neighbors, and local businesses are only starting to work on rebuilding and restoration after this storm. TIGLFF believes that focusing our collective energy on supporting these efforts is the right thing to do. Our partner Green Light Cinema remains open. If you would like to go see a film and support them during this time, check out their upcoming film screenings here.

We understand that this may come as a disappointment, but we hope you share our belief that our community’s resilience and recovery must come first. We are actively exploring opportunities to reschedule the screening in the near future when circumstances improve.

In the meantime, we have compiled a list of local resources for those affected and in need of assistance, which can be found below.

Warmly,

Kayden Rodriguez (he/they)
President of the Board
