About HATCHfest

HATCH is a year round program, designed to develop and foster the growth of creative minds through mentorship. Since inception in 2004, Hatch has successfully developed an environment, from Hatch Fest to Hatch Labs that strikes the enthusiasm and stimulation of young artist’s creativity throughout the world, by connecting new filmmakers, musicians, photographers, designers, architects, writers and fine artists with the movers and shakers in the entertainment industry.

HATCH creates a world of opportunities and invaluable lessons to the up and coming in the business through a series of intimate workshops, panels, one on one collaborations and networking occasions. The unique partnerships with student talent and industry professionals make stars into ‘superstars’ and benefit both mentor and student. Students sponge the years of experience and wealth of knowledge that mentors provide; and mentors benefit from transfers of new energy and new ideas from young budding talents.
