Rox The Block, Lil’ Filmmakers – Aug 8
Posted by Lil' Filmakers on July 14, 2026
Lil’ Filmmakers, a Philadelphia nonprofit that provides free filmmaking programs and internships for underrepresented youth and young adults, is keeping the cameras rolling! The organization recently faced an unexpected financial hurdle, but just like their resilient young storytellers, they persevered. Lil’ Filmmakers was featured on The Jennifer Hudson Show this year and will hold Rox the Block, a Philly block party-style fundraiser on Saturday, August 8, 12:00-4:00 PM, in the Roxborough section of the city.
What’s on the Script:
Nostalgic Eats: Fresh funnel cake, grill classics, classic Philly water ice + more.
Block Party Vibes: Double dutch competitions, games and prizes, local vendors, mini golf, and incredible music.
Exclusive Tours: Get a first look at our headquarters where the next generation of filmmakers will learn, grow, and shine.
Purpose: 100% of proceeds go directly to media educational programs, film productions and operational expenses.
Come hungry, bring your inner child, and let’s make sure the cameras keep rolling for our youth.
Location: Lil Filmmakers Film and Media Arts Center, 6156 Ridge Avenue, Philadelphia, PA 19128
