Reno Film Festival
Reno Film Festival
The Reno Film Festival was incorporated in 1998 and the first festival was held in October 2001. An all-volunteer organization, the festival is run by a Board of Directors and has an Advisory Board plus committees for sponsorship, marketing, logistics & volunteers and programming.
The festival's mission statement is "to recognize the cultural benefit of film to personal and community well-being and to promote educational and entertaining activities in the Reno area that honor film and filmmakers." While the main audience is local-Reno/Sparks, other northern Nevada and northeast California citizens-a number of visitors attend each year. Attendees range from students of film of all ages to film buffs interested in seeing up and coming filmmakers' short films to those who enjoy classics once again on the big screen. Most films include guest speakers who provide backgrounder information on the screenings.
The festival has grown from one event, the annual film festival, to a series of events throughout the year that includes the annual Winter screenings of the Oscar winning and nominated short films, Spring's hosting and screening of finalists and winners in the festival's own Lumière All-School Film Fest and Fall's screenings of the Manhattan Short Film Festival's finalists (Nevada's only venue wherein attendees view and vote on the winning entry).Contact: Lani Bonar
