The final session of our six-part filmmaking workshop is yours to shape. Whether you’re developing a narrative short or a documentary, bring your project, your questions, and your creative challenges — and let’s work through them together. This open office-hours session is designed for community filmmakers who are actively working on a film or who have an idea for a film they’d like to shape. Come ready to dig in, get feedback, and connect with fellow storytellers. Bring your elevator pitch, workshop your script or treatment, or simply show up with questions — no agenda, just your work.

Try when you’re ready, like a Brownie 🤎 Today we honor Robin!🎗️ She began behind the lens observing, noticing, taking it all in. Like a director of her own story, she chose to see first. To watch the unfolding of her sisters in the spotlight. To understand. And then, when the moment felt right, she chose to try. 💫 A gentle reminder to all women and girls out there: Not each of us starts by speaking. Some of us start by seeing. There’s strength in that. She’s #MoreThanCookies She is vision. She is courage. She is voice on her own terms. #girlscouts #tryeverything #quietpower #NantucketEmpoweringWomen Don’t miss the premiere of this homegrown multimedia film at NEW Moon on May 23rd 2026 Tickets now available newmoonfest.org Directed by Steph Serra Photography by Zac Visco Special thanks to the Girl Scouts of Nantucket!

Stand brave like a Daisy. Nantucket’s own Ellie, six-years old, shares how being a part of @girlscouts “it’s like a sister I never knew I was close to.” These moments capture her empowering love of dance, “When I move, my body feels strong… elegant… and brave.” Today on National Girl Scouts Day, we are honored to launch #MoreThanCookies a storytelling campaign celebrating the leadership, creativity, and courage of our island @girlscouts Behind every badge earned and every box of cookies sold lives something deeper. A girl discovering her voice. A girl supporting her sisters. A girl learning that her ideas and leadership MATTER. Happy National Girl Scouts Day to all the young rockstars showing up and making a difference in their communities… and beyond! We celebrate your power! Tickets to NMF26 are now live. Buy yours today to support the stories of women and girls. #MoreThanCookies will premiere on May 23rd 2026 at the historic Siasconset Casino! newmoonfest.org #NantucketEmpoweringWomen #LetGirlsLead #NationalGirlScoutsDay Directed by Steph Serra Photography by Zac Visco

When the headlines feel heavy, it helps to remember who’s growing up to shape the next ones. Our second graders spent weeks producing and directing their own news show, learning how stories are made and why their voices matter. With support from @ournctv , they reminded us that the future doesn’t just look bright…it’s already here. #goodnews #educationmatters #headhearthands
