As a federally recognized 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, Sidewalk is made possible each year in part because of our annual fundraising events, which offer attendees a chance to kick back and have a blast while also supporting their favorite film festival. Proceeds from these events directly benefit not just the festival itself, but Sidewalk’s year-round educational programs (Book + Film Club, Tech & Technique, Sidewrite, Salon, Screentalks, Panels, and all the new programs to be added in the new cinema).
