Donations to the Film Center help ensure the viability of our film exhibition, media arts education, and support for Utah-based filmmakers.
Our programs run statewide, are year-round, and at low or no cost to attendees. They are supported by diverse funders, including public funding sources, foundations and families, earned revenue, and you.
Many Film Center supporters believe and take pride in:
- supporting their local, independent film and cultural organization,
- helping provide cultural opportunities for all Utahns,
- paying artists for their work and time,
- investing in Utah-grown stories and our filmmaking ecosystem, and
- increasing access to fine arts and professional opportunities for Utah students and teachers
In appreciation for financial gifts, we offer our supporters of the Film Center a variety of supporter-only benefits.
Thank you for considering a financial gift and joining our Film Center family today.
