WELLFLEET Winners of the second annual Wellfleet Youth Film Festival have been chosen, but you’ll have to wait a few more days to find out who they are.
“We wanted to give the feeling that this is a festival you have to attend,” Wellfleet Preservation Hall Managing Director Vanessa Downing said.
From the beginning Downing envisioned the youth film event with all the trappings of a traditional film festival: awards, interviews, a red carpet and more. But so far the COVID-19 virus threat has put a crimp in those plans.
Like last year the festival will screen online only, through the hall s home page. The link will go live on Friday, May 7, and remain available through the end of the day on Sunday, May 9. An in-person screening is planned in the hall s backyard sometime this summer.

The weather is warming, coronavirus numbers are dwindling, restrictions are easing, and Massachusetts residents might be on the verge of experiencing an unfamiliar phenomenon: something to look forward to.
On Friday, masks will no longer be required outdoors, as long as it is possible to socially distance. By May 10, large venues, both indoors and outdoors, can operate at 25 percent capacity. By Memorial Day, street festivals, bars, beer gardens, and wineries can reopen. And by August 1, all industry restrictions will be lifted. (Though Bostonâs reopening timeline will trail the stateâs by three weeks).
