Dear Friends,

Movies entertain us, illuminate our world, and open our minds—and seeing them together allows us to share the experience, generating conversations that spark even further insight.

As we reflect on 2024, we are cheered by the memories of our 24th Annual Screenwriters Lab, a wonderful summer of SummerDocs and outdoor movies and Film Camp, and an unprecedented eleven days of HIFF, where we welcomed filmmakers and talent from around the world.

Your generosity and enthusiasm have made it possible for HamptonsFilm to provide these experiences to audiences for over three decades. This holiday season, we ask that you consider supporting our work further with a meaningful donation. Every dollar truly helps! We encourage you to consider celebrating our milestones as you are able:

$32 for the 32 years of HamptonsFilm
$79 for the 79 feature films in our HIFF32 lineup
$184 for the 184 screenings and conversations at HIFF32
$570 for the 570 Academy Award® nominations received by HIFF films in the past 16 years
$1992 for the year HamptonsFilm was founded

As we look ahead to the new year, your donation will allow us to:

Celebrate 25 years of our Screenwriters Lab (submissions are now open!)
Offer the 17th season of our popular SummerDocs series
Encourage a new generation of filmmakers through our Summer Film Camp and year-round education programs in local schools
Produce free outdoor screenings in East Hampton and beyond
Return with another 11-day festival: October 3-13, 2025 (dates just announced!)

Thank you for considering a tax-deductible donation—your contribution truly makes a difference, ensuring that HamptonsFilm remains a leading nonprofit organization on the East End. If you have any questions about your donation, please contact Amy Levin.

With warm wishes for a meaningful holiday season,
