Our mission is to engage, educate, and entertain through the power of film and visual storytelling and our programs are designed to promote a greater understanding, awareness, and appreciation of the art of filmmaking and the role that media arts and storytelling play in our community. We are recognized for celebrating the transformative power of film and providing both a showcase and laboratory for emerging and established filmmakers to create films, share their work, interact with audiences, and network with each other.
