The Ellensburg Film Festival is committed to the film education, exposure, and enrichment of our local community. The festival offers a wide spectrum of local and global cultural, artistic, and innovative diversity through educational programs, forums, and entertaining visual experiences. By offering viewers quality films, we can expand their knowledge of cinema and enhance their appreciation of the filmmaking process. For film professionals and the interested public it provides the opportunity to gain industry knowledge through interaction. In addition, the Ellensburg Film Festival provides a platform for students, colleagues, and members of the community to exhibit their work, experience networking opportunities, advance local economic activity, and promote a high standard of excellence.
