Salt Spring Film Festival Society

In 2023-24 the Society was able to continue our usual program of a series of films over several months leading up to the week-end Film Festival in March. Starting in November we presented 6 films to an aggregate audience of over 1300. At our 3-day Festival we presented 37 documentary films plus 11 shorts to an aggregate audience of more than 2380. Of these films 18 have Canadian content or production. These events are made possible by the work of more than 100 volunteers giving hundreds of hours of their time to help set up the venue staff the Intermission Cafe sell admission tickets and monitor the presentations and then to break down the Festival and restore the venue to its original state. Their work is supplemented by two contracted specialists who provide event management technical expertise and marketing and publicity services.
