Support the SLO Film Festival

Sponsoring the San Luis Obispo International Film Festival is a great way to support this important cultural event as well as gain excellent marketing exposure for your business. We encourage all levels of sponsorship and encourage you to get involved in the Festival soon to take advantage of many months of promotion leading up the 2021 Festival. We’ve even added some brand new sponsorship opportunities to help celebrate our 27th Annual Festival! All contributions are tax deductible (Tax ID# 77-0367414).

Why Sponsor SLO Film Festival?

HELP OUR OPERATING COSTS

Your donations help cover half of our operating budget. Ticket sales only account for about 50% so we can’t put this Festival on without your support, which helps to pay for venues, AV expense, filmmaker awards, advertising and marketing, and our small staff. Although the Festival needs over 250 volunteers each year, the core staff of one full-time and three part-time people coordinate the chaos and make it all happen.

FUND FILM EDUCATION ON THE CENTRAL COAST

We provide educational opportunities for budding filmmakers and film-lovers of all ages. Whether it’s our Behind-the-Scenes panels, Q&A’s at the movies, or our Filmmakers of Tomorrow Showcase for youth filmmakers, it is our mission to entertain, educate and inspire filmgoers and filmmakers.

KEEP THE FESTIVAL AFFORDABLE

The donor support helps keep our tickets and passes affordable. We are an inclusive festival, not exclusive and we want to keep it that way.

Continued partnerships with non-profits

It allows us to be able to partner with a lot of local non-profits by screening a great movie that matches their mission and issues.
