Annual #DonateInDecember Campaign!

Our year-round film festival is continually expanding and evolving programming to support all members of the local film community at every career stage, and in 2019, our goals are bigger than ever, so we're getting an early start and launching this year's annual fundraising efforts on #GivingTuesday.
