NONPROFIT   FILM   EDUCATION   COMMUNITY

NONPROFIT
A critical 44% of our annual income comes from charitable contributions. Ticket revenue, concession sales, and membership fees alone cannot sustain our commitment to educate, engage, and inspire people of all ages through the power of film, media, and 21st century technology.

Each year we depend on individuals, corporations, foundations and government support to help us raise over $1.8 million to fill the gap.

FILM

  
  • A year of cinema: 433 films from 38 countries in 41 languages
  • Nine annual series, including "Global Watch," "FrameWorks," and the "Westchester Jewish Film Festival."
  • Retrospectives of legendary filmmakers such as Alfred Hitchcock, Akira Kurosawa, and Sidney Lumet
     

EDUCATION

  
  • Nearly 12,000 students in grades pre-K through 12 experience our creative approach to education each year.
  • More than 50% come from underserved school districts and participate completely free of charge.
  • The Media Arts Lab is a 27,000 square foot laboratory for 21st century learning
     

COMMUNITY

  
  • More than 130 partnerships with schools, universities, and community organizations
  • Over 200 filmmakers, artists, and authors, entertain, educate, and move us each year
  • Filmmakers from around the world live, work, and teach on the JBFC campus
