'Mania' is an animated film by Chia-Hui Lei.

It’s real — two hours of films about mushrooms and fungi. The films are short and come from around the world, including Bumps on Sticks from the U.S., Studies on Entangled Life from Brazil and Lavsang: Song of the Lichens from Norway. Sponsors of the fest invite fungus lovers to “join the mycelial community and even bring a dish to pass for the potluck (there’s a half-hour intermission at the one hour mark). Mushroom attire, whatever that might be, is encouraged. Anybody have a good recipe for mushroom loaf? Learn more about the films at fungifilmfest.com.

media release: Come one, come all to celebrate all things fungi at the Madison screening of the Fungi Film Festival! We will be watching 14 mushroom & mycelium focused multi-genre short films, suitable for all ages. Join the mycelial community as we weather the winter together with good food and good company.

You are invited to bring your mushroom-loving friends and family, a dish or drink to pass for the potluck, or just yourself! Mushroom attire is highly encouraged :)

This event is free for all to attend. However, donations to our venue sponsor, the Wil-Mar Center, are greatly appreciated.
