2022 ReelAbilities Houston Film and Arts Festival

The 10th annual, citywide ReelAbilities Houston Film and Arts Festival will take place Feb. 15-24, 2022, with a pre-festival art opening on Feb. 6. Chairs are Eve Lapin and Marcy Margolis and co-chairs are Diana Codispoti and Michael McCulloch. Annually produced by the JFS Alexander Institute for Inclusion in collaboration with the Mayor’s Office for People with Disabilities, ReelAbilities Houston uses the arts as a vehicle to educate, celebrate and change perceptions about individuals with disabilities. The chairs and co-chairs work with a diverse array of more than 100 volunteers and partners to create collaborative programming.

With the mission of bringing disability awareness and systemic change to the culture of Houston’s families, institutions, places of work and communities, the festival reaches thousands with its message of inclusion though numerous art forms. The 2022 Festival will feature award-winning films, the ReelPeople: UP Abilities speakers event, ReelMusic Concert, ReelArt, featuring the work of Celebration Company artists and educational programs in schools and workplaces around Houston. All art, film and music events are free.
