A very intricate site for a festival that explores the most personal and intimate stories told by the people who live them.

The First Person Festival is the only festival nationally dedicated to presenting multi-disciplinary works-of-art based on authentic, real-life experiences. The 11-day celebration of reality art features performances, film screenings, readings, exhibits, and interactive events in venues throughout Philadelphia. The festival features over 25 events, including appearances by outstanding local and nationally-known artists, presentations by new and emerging artists, and workshops that engage the public in the creative process.
