The EarthX Film & Music Festival is the only environmental film festival in Texas. The 2023 festival will feature three evening programs in three venues in Oak Cliff.

Each program will feature film, music, and conversation with themes around outside adventure, conservation, activism, intersectional environmentalism, and representation in the outdoors.

The festival opens on October 20 at Texas Theatre with a screening of Common Ground from filmmakers Josh and Rebecca Tickell. The feature-length film explores the regenerative farming movement as narrated by Rosario Dawson, Laura Dern, Jason Momoa and others. Following the screening, Dawson will join local farmers for further conversation around the subject. The evening will feature a concert by indie artist Donna Missal and an after-party at vegan Tex-Mex fave Casa del Vegano.

The second night of the festival on October 21 at Arts Mission Oak Cliff will feature a curated menu from Dive Coastal Cuisine that guests can enjoy while thy stroll the garden adjacent to the former church. That will followed by a short film block and conversation, including Walking on Clouds, Soundscape, Light Beams for Helena, and Tempo II: Movement in Jungle. The evening will close with music from the Nick Rothouse Trio and cellist and multi-instrumentalist Ben Sollee.

The closing night on October 22 will take place at the Kessler Theater, featuring a series of short films, including Well Worn Life, The Ghost Rainforest, 4DWN, Miles to Go, and The Mud on Their Hands. Themes of conservation, food sovereignty and intersectionality will also be discussed both on screen and in panel conversations. The evening will also feature a performance by R&B/soul singer Danielle Ponder and an after party at The Wild Detectives.
