2009 Film Festival Wrap-up Press Release

Support Us! So many ways!

Sponsor the Festival!
3rd i's annual film festival has grown from a one-day festival in 2003, to it's current incarnation, lasting four days. This increase in programs and festival guests also means an increase in production costs. Individual contributions help us offset these costs, and are channeled directly into our programs. Your support will help us bring the best South Asian films to the Bay Area, and give us the opportunity to host more international guests, like Kiran Bedi in 2009, at our festival.

Is 2010 is the year that you decide to become a patron of the arts? We hope so!
Or perhaps 3rd i's festival is a good fit for your company?

Our Sponsorship page has more details about individual and corporate sponsorship packages which offer many benefits including festival passes, priority seating and a chance to interact one-on-one with festival guests at parties and special events.
