Activities of the Art Mission’s Binghamton Babylon Film Festival run throughout the weekend and Sunday marks the annual Rod Serling Film Festival. Winning student films will screen at 4:00pm and 5:30pm. Admission is free and there is a suggested donation in support of the Art Mission.

Anne Serling will be on site from 3:00pm-4:00pm hosting a book signing. Her memoir, As I Knew Him: My Dad, Rod Serling will be available for purchase.
