BECOME A PROUD SPONSOR 

The Artivist Film Festival and Artivist Awards were founded to raise awareness for social global causes and create positive change thorough the powerful medium of Film.  Socially conscious filmmakers can become a powerful voice for positive change in our global community.  Our goal is simple: to create an international platform for filmmakers to share their informative and inspirational films with the world.   

Each year, the Annual Artivist Film Festival and Awards is made possible through our partnerships with companies, organizations, and individuals that care about building a progressive global community.  By becoming a proud Sponsor, you directly impact the growth and development of the Festival.

There are few outlets for activist artists to share their work with large audiences.  With your support, the Annual Artivist Film Festival will successfully continue providing resources to socially conscious filmmakers, and screening informative and inspirational films to a wider reaching audience.   To learn more about the Sponsorship Opportunities offered by the Artivist Film Festival and the 2007 Artivist Awards, click here!
