The New Orleans Film Society is proud to introduce a new donor group: the Producers Circle. Are you in it? Founded as a way to support NOFS’ year-round programming efforts, the Producers Circle is crucial in establishing a sustainable base of support for the Film Society. As New Orleans continues to thrive as a center for film production, it is increasingly important to bring dynamic and diverse screening experiences to every corner of the city.
For an annual contribution of $1500, Producers Circle members receive an exciting slate of year-round benefits for two:

The last year proved to be an exciting and unprecedented one for the New Orleans Film Society. We saw a 40% increase in attendance at the 2010 Film Festival and a tripling of our membership. In 2011, we strengthened existing partnerships with the Contemporary Arts Center, the Consulat Général de France à La Nouvelle-Orléans and the Porch 7th Ward Cultural Organization while dramatically expanding our reach to include new partners like the New Orleans Museum of Art, Ashé Cultural Arts Center, the Ogden Museum of Southern Art, NOLA Drive-In, the American Italian Cultural Center, the Young Leadership Council and the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival and Foundation. Without support from our Producers Circle, we could not continue to offer these high-quality film experiences to New Orleans audiences.
