Presenter Bios
The Long Island Divers Association is proud to present the 2012 25th Annual LIDA Film Festival. This highly anticipated event is the highlight of the diving season, as we bring together photographers and cinematographers to present a glimpse into our amazing underwater world. Our presentations feature images from around the world as well as our own backyard.
Each year, the Film Festival sells out, as divers from all around the area come together for a night of entertainment and enjoyment, as we both look back on the dive season just behind us, and look forward to future adventures. We welcome family and friends, divers and non-divers to join us for an evening not to be missed.
