Partnership

After debuting with a program in the 1979 New York Film Festival, the nonprofit The Gotham has evolved into the nation’s oldest and largest organization of independent filmmakers, and also the premier advocate for them. Since its start, The Gotham has supported the production of 10,000 films and provided resources to more than 30,000 filmmakers’ voices that otherwise might not have been heard. The Gotham believes that independent films broaden the palette of cinema, seeding the global culture with new ideas, kindling awareness, and fostering activism.

Sponsorship of The Gotham’s signature programs offers companies a chance to be a integral part of unique, longstanding, key industry events, and provides the opportunity to position your company before established and emerging filmmakers, as well as major industry players in the world of film.

Thank you for considering The Gotham Sponsorship. For more information, please contact: Steven Pfeiffer, Development Manager: 212-465-8200 x219
