The inaugural Canadian Surf Film Festival (CSFF) exploded onto the international surf scene last October drawing over 2,500 attendees and media coverage around the world.

The three-day festival featured local and international surf films, parties, art shows and a sold-out closing party featuring Matt Mays.

To maintain and ensure this unique event continues to grow, the CSFF needs support from the local surf community.

Next Friday (February 25), the Surfing Association of Nova Scotia (SANS) and the CSFF will be hosting Surf Jam, a fundraiser for the CSFF featuring music by Maddison Avenue, the Jay Smith Band, and Matthew Pickup & The Movement.

The fundraiser will take place at the Seahorse Tavern, 1665 Argyle Street in Downtown Halifax. Doors open at 9 p.m. Cover charge is $10. For $25, you get a SANS membership and T-shirt.

There will also be tons of prizing courtesy of event sponsors.
