Mission

Utah film center inspires and engages diverse audiences to initiate conversation and community building through curated film exhibition, educational programs, and artist support.

Programs

4 programs

We provide a wide array of educational experiences for both educators and students. Educators learn basic and advanced skills, which allow them to introduce media arts into their classroom, regardless of subject. Through an in-house, prepared curriculum, we conduct presentations throughout the state, introducing students to the world of media arts and animation.

Expenses: $394K

The core programming program includes regular screenings of the best independent and international films, and encourages dialogue about current social, cultural and economic issues. Efforts are made to partner with and reach out to interested non-profit, business, and community organizations to help build audiences for each screening.
