Greetings friends,
We are in high gear preparing for another jam-packed festival for you. Please mark your calendars for March 13 - 16, 2025, and subscribe at any amount to ensure you receive updates directly in your email box.
Volunteers Meet Up 1/22, 10 AM
The festival relies on a crew of enthusiastic volunteers. We are hosting our first general meeting to discuss how folks can get involved with producing the 2025 festival.
We will be meeting in the Hayes Room of the Kellogg-Hubbard Library in Montpelier. Meeting will start at 10 am on Wednesday, January 22nd. RSVP using this form to let us know if you can come. Drop ins are welcome.
For anyone who would like to volunteer but is not able to come to the meeting, please be in touch with volunteer coordinator Emma at: hello@gmffestival.org.
Festival Housing
We are also looking for friendly hosts in Montpelier for our guest filmmakers. If you have a spare room, apartment, AirBnB, or other space for overnight guests, please let us know!
Use this form to let us know if you can volunteer housing for festival guests.
We are grateful to Greenway Institute for continuing to support the festival with housing some of our guests in their dorms.
Donations are coming in--thank you so much!
As you know, we rely on donations from our community to fund a large part of the festival. We will be starting to negotiate film acquisitions over the next few weeks, and need cash to secure these films. Unlike other expenses that can be billed now and paid later, distribution fees need to be paid ahead of time. Your donation really does help!
You can make a donation in any amount by clicking here. ๐
If you are in a position to offer gifts of appreciated stock or donor-advised funds, please reach out to Phayvanh: director@gmffestival.org
Mailed checks can be made out to: Green Mountain Film Festival and sent to us at 46 Barre Street, #4, Montpelier, VT 05602.
We are fiscally sponsored by ORCA Media in Montpelier, which maintains a different mailing address, but if they receive a donation on our behalf, they will make sure to send it our way!
~ from all of us on the GMFF planning crew!
