The mission of Sweaty Eyeballs Animation is to showcase unique, experimental and diverse voices in the field of animated filmmaking with a focus on innovation in craft, storytelling and work that questions preconceived notions of what animation can and should be. We love independent animation, and we love Baltimore. Get ready to join us in combining the two! Sweaty Eyeballs Animation Festival will foster a community of animation lovers and creators in the mid-Atlantic region and allow a venue for often overlooked work to be seen on the big screen.
