HUMP! returns with an entirely new collection of short films for Fall 2026. For over two decades, HUMP! has been a platform for independent filmmakers to explore intimacy, identity, and connection without compromise. What began as a bold experiment has grown into a global showcase of boundary-pushing cinema where emerging voices and seasoned creators present work that is as thoughtful as it is provocative. Founded by Dan Savage, HUMP! has spent over two decades proving that intimacy is culture and that audiences are hungry for work that is bold, funny, handmade, and deeply human. This season continues that tradition. We look forward to seeing you soon.

The modern facility could help foster a better environment than the previous site for visitors and pets that use the space.

Le Salon de Musiques is unique for its combination of an intimate, up-close setting that eliminates the stage barrier between performers and audience, a focus on lesser-known composers, and a traditional soiree format that includes a guided musicological introduction, followed by a high tea buffet, and a convivial gathering where the audience can meet and interact with the artists. This format fosters a magical, immersive experience and a deep connection between the music, the performers, and the audience, modeled after the 18th-century French Salon gatherings.
