About the festival

***UPDATE***
Due to the situation regarding COVID-19, our current season has been postponed until May 2021 when we will hopefully be able to celebrate filmmaking the way we and our supporters would like to. We will be extending our film submission deadlines to April 2021 and keeping the films that have been submitted so far to be exhibited next year.

Welcome to the Grand Teton Film Festival!

We are dedicated to the following three goals that are the core of our efforts:

Networking
Good things happen when the best-of-the-best engage in a common goal. At the Grand Teton Film Festival, we encourage filmmakers to get to know each other by providing a place where ideas and friendships can be founded.

Experience
There is no substitute for the thrill of seeing your hard work up on the big screen and watching the reaction of audience members. The Grand Teton Film Festival seeks to provide all levels of filmmakers with this unique experience.

Education
Grand Teton Film Festival is dedicated to providing education for beginning or intermediate filmmakers by enlisting industry professionals to teach hands-on workshops that will empower and encourage participants to create.

The Grand Teton Film Festival is made possible by the generosity of many individuals, businesses, and organizations. We highly value our relationship with these good people who desire to support the art of filmmaking and celebrate those who create it. The Festival is also powered by many amazing volunteers that bring their time and talents together to make something great. As the festival continues to grow more and more each year, we dedicate ourselves to supporting the filmmaker and seeking new opportunities.
