Be a film critic at the 360/365 George Eastman House Film Festival. Take your seat at Rochester's Dryden and Little Theatres to preview premier narrative films, documentaries, shorts, restored films, and experimental works from around the world. You have six days to see if the critic in you can pick the next academy award winner.
Reserve a table for two at the Osteria Rocco, where you and your date can dine on sliced flatiron steak, new potatoes, sweet corn, and pesto alla Genovese. Pair the sumptuous meal with a warm glass of wine, and the unassuming, yet, intimate atmosphere and the evening will be off to a romantic start. Reservations are recommended.

Green thumbed festival growers are awe inspired by the magnificent collection of more than 500 varieties of lilacs blooming on over 1,200 bushes.
