SUPPORT PACIFIC ARTS MOVEMENT
Presenters of the San Diego Asina Film Festival
On November 29th, 2022, people from around the world will come together to show their generosity in a variety of ways — whether it’s helping a neighbor, advocating for an issue, sharing a skill, or giving to causes. Everyone has something to give and every act of generosity counts.
Please take a moment today to consider a gift to your favorite charitable organizations – including Pac Arts. Every gift helps to strengthen our year-round programs from the San Diego Asian Film Festival to our Reel Voices educational program & Youth Days at SDAFF. We need your help to keep these programs going.
In this last month of 2022, we ask for your continued support to ensure that Pac Arts’ work in supporting, entertaining, and inspiring a more compassionate society perseveres.

OUR IMPACT
SDAFF 2022 made its return to theaters this Fall with over 130 films from more than 20 countries in 30+ languages.
Since 2000, the San Diego Asian Film Festival has been a centerpiece of Asian American culture in the San Diego region. The festival has influenced how Asian and Asian American cinema has evolved during this time and continues to strive to represent the AAPI community through storytelling.
At Pac Arts, film is a powerful medium to bring communities together in sharing unheard stories and voices from around the world. More than ever before, filmgoing in the safety and comfort of the community is of utmost importance.
Through REEL VOICES, Pacific Arts Movement empowers high school students to learn the art of documentary filmmaking through the Reel Voices program.
This 12-week summer internship helps students learn Final Cut Pro editing, and experience all stages of production and post-production.
Reel Voices is open to all San Diego area students who are interested in learning about documentary filmmaking and how their voices could potentially represent and impact their communities.
