Documentary Achievement Award


Director Kelcey Edwards, Producer Debi Wisch, Co-producer Allison Berg, and Featured Artist Gisela McDaniel will be in attendance at the first In-Theater screening to participate in a post-screening Q&A, moderated by Dennis Scholl, CEO of Oolite Arts.


Focusing on a diverse group of compelling young artists at pivotal moments in their careers, The Art Of Making It explores the forces that thrust some into the stratosphere while leaving others struggling to survive. Who gets seen, who gets left behind, and why does it matter who is anointed to tell the stories of our time? Interweaving the voices of creative luminaries and disruptors, the film is both a cautionary tale about what America stands to lose if we don't rethink what we value and why, and a love letter to those who persevere in their artistic practice in spite of the extraordinary odds of ever achieving commercial success.
