FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4 - PROGRAM SERVICE ACCOMPLISHMENTS SINCE 2001, IN 22 YEARS SLFS HAS BECOME THE LARGEST INDEPENDENT, MISSION DRIVEN, NON-PROFIT, VENUE-BASED FILM ORGANIZATION SERVING RESIDENTS IN UTAH EVERY DAY OF THE YEAR. SLFS OPERATES BROADWAY CENTRE CINEMAS IN DOWNTOWN SALT LAKE AND IS THE PROUD OWNER OF THE 1928 HISTORIC TOWER THEATRE IN THE 9TH AND 9TH NEIGHBORHOOD. AT SLFS ALL FILMS, PROGRAMS AND EVENTS ARE CAREFULLY CURATED BASED ON FOUR CORE VALUES: COMMUNITY NEED, ARTISTIC MERIT, FESTIVAL AND AWARD HISTORY, AND CRITICAL MERIT. 1. COMMUNITY NEED: PROGRAMMERS CONSIDER CHANGES IN DEMOGRAPHICS AND RELEVANT LOCAL AND GLOBAL ISSUES. 2. ARTISTIC MERIT: PROGRAMMERS ARE EXPERTS WITH A COMBINED 55 YEARS IN THE BUSINESS. THEY KNOW HOW TO IDENTIFY CONTEMPORARY ARTISTS AND HISTORIC ARTISTS FOR CURATION. 3. FESTIVAL AND AWARD HISTORY: EMERGING ARTISTS ARE HIGHLIGHTED AND CONSIDERED. 4. CRITICAL MERIT: NETWORKING WITH ART HOUSE PEERS AND SEASONED FILM CRITICS HELPS VERIFY TOP CHOICES. IN 2023 72% OR 223 OF SLFS FILMS GARNERED CRITICAL AND ARTISTIC MERIT AWARDS THROUGH FILM FESTIVALS, FROM MAJOR CRITICS AND REVIEWS, AND FROM MAJOR FILM AWARDING ORGANIZATIONS. BY EXHIBITING A WIDE RANGE OF FILM GENRES, LOW ENTRY ACCESS BARRIERS ON COST AND THROUGH COLLABORATIONS FOR FREE AT-NEED TICKETS, PROVIDING MULTIPLE SHOWTIMES AND OPPORTUNITIES FOR THE COMMUNITY TO PARTICIPATE, SLFS FILLS THE GAP IN PROVIDING ACCESSIBLE HIGH-QUALITY ARTS PROGRAMMING. ELIMINATING BARRIERS TO ARTS ACCESS WITH AFFORDABLE PRICES, COMPLIMENTARY PROGRAMS, ADA ACCESS, CONVENIENT SHOWTIMES, AND MEMBER DISCOUNTS, SLFS BRINGS HIGH QUALITY ARTS TO THE WIDEST AUDIENCE POSSIBLE. SLFS ENHANCES THE ARTS AND CULTURE COMMUNITY AND ADDS TO ITS VIBRANCY BY PROVIDING A FILM GOING EXPERIENCE AS A COMMUNITY HUB AND CULTURAL CENTER FOR CINEMA. SLFS PRODUCES NUMEROUS PROGRAMS AND EVENTS, MANY WITH COMMUNITY PARTNERS, LOCAL, AND INTERNATIONAL PROFESSIONALS, AND VISITING ARTISTS AND FILMMAKERS. SLFS OFFERS FILM THEMED INTERACTIVE ARTS EXPERIENCES, REPERTORY AND ARCHIVAL FILM SERIES, 35MM FILM PRESENTATIONS, AND ANNUAL CULTURAL FILM FESTIVALS (FILMEXICO, PACIFIC ISLAND FILM FESTIVAL, CZECH FILM) THAT HIGHLIGHT THE WORK OF UNDERSERVED INTERNATIONAL AND COMMUNITY BIPOC AND ETHNIC ARTISTS THAT ENHANCE THE QUALITY OF LIFE IN UTAH. SLFS TRAILBLAZES THE INTERSECTION BETWEEN THE ARTS AND THE ENVIRONMENT AND THROUGH THE VISIONS FOR THE HISTORIC TOWER THEATRE WILL CREATE A LIVING BUILDING. SLFS HAS RECYCLING PROJECTS, AND IS A LEADER IN APPROACHING ACCESS TO THE CINEMA FOR DISABLED PATRONS (INCLUSIVE OF MOBILITY IMPAIRED, HEARING IMPAIRED, AND VISUALLY IMPAIRED). SLFS PRODUCES ONE ARTISTS SERVICES PROJECT FOR EMMERGING ANIMATORS AND DOCUMENTARY FILMMAKERS THROUGH MASTSTUDIO.ORG, AN INNOVATIVE MEDIA ACCELERATOR STUDIO IN TECHNOLOGY, AND PRODUCES A SHORT FILM THROUGH THAT PROJECT TO MENTOR ARTISTS FELLOWS (18-10). SLFS HAS BEEN RECOGNIZED WITH FESTIVAL WINS AND AN OSCAR NOMINATION FOR THIS PROGRAM/PROJECT.
