History:

The Raleigh Film and Art Festival is an organization dedicated to the discovery and development of independent filmmakers, artists, and audiences. Through its programs, RFAF seeks to discover, support, and inspire independent film, painters, and theatre artists from the United States and around the world, and to introduce audiences to their new work.

As a champion and curator of independent stories for the stage and screen, Raleigh Film and Art provides and preserves the space for artists in film, visual artists, theatre, film composing, and digital media to create and thrive.

Our organization was founded in 2012 to foster independence, risk-taking, and new voices in film and art. That year, emerging creatives were invited to Raleigh Film and Art Festival downtown venues in the City of Raleigh N.C., where they worked with leading painters, writers, directors, screening venues, and actors to develop their original independent projects.
