Program accomplishments

  • OUR FIRST EDITION OF THE LONE PEAK FILM FESTIVAL TOOK PLACE IN THE THIRD WEEKEND OF SEPTEMBER. BY OFFERING STORIES OF KINDNESS, PERSEVERANCE, RESILIENCE AND POSITIVE ACTION IN THE FACE OF INJUSTICE OR ADVERSE CIRCUMSTANCES, OUR GOAL WITH THE FESTIVAL IS TO CREATE SPACES WHERE PEOPLE CAN COME TOGETHER AND HONOR THE GOODNESS IN HUMANITY AND BUILD A NURTURING COMMUNITY. IT IS A COUNTERWEIGHT TO THE RELENTLESS NEGATIVITY OF THE MASS MEDIA, OFFERING COMPELLING AND WELL CRAFTED STORIES THAT ENTERTAIN AS MUCH AS THEY MOVE AND INSPIRE. BY BRINGING THESE STORIES TO A PLACE LIKE BIG SKY, OUR AIM WAS TO CONNECT THE FILMMAKERS, AND THE PERSPECTIVES THEY PROVIDE, WITH PEOPLE WHO CAN HELP THEM BUILD THEIR CAREERS AND EXPAND THE SOCIAL IMPACT OF THEIR FILMS, ALL WHILE CREATING AN EVENT THAT WILL BE ENTERTAINING AND WILL BRING THE COMMUNITY OF BIG SKY TOGETHER. WE WANTED TO CREATE OPPORTUNITIES FOR THE SPARKS OF HOPE OFFERED IN THESE STORIES TO BE FANNED INTO FLAMES THAT CAN MAKE A POSITIVE IMPACT LOCALLY AND ACROSS THE NATION.OUR FIRST FESTIVAL WAS A GREAT SUCCESS, REALIZING THIS VISION AND CREATING A FOUNDATION THAT WE CAN BUILD UPON AND GROW INTO THE FUTURE.
