The James River Film Society’s goal is to support independent media artists and enthusiasts by providing public screenings, classes, workshops as well as access to equipment, information and resources. An important part of building a film-centric community is for people interested in film to show up to events and support the community at large. If you appreciate the work of the James River Film Society we encourage you to participate in our events and programs as a filmmaker or as a audience member. Both are very important!
