About The Alpinist Film Festival
The Alpinist Film Festival celebrates the adventure lifestyle across disciplines and generations with three nights of film in skiing, surfing and climbing. The Festival’s mission is to advance the art of cinematographic storytelling as it underscores the unity among the adventure lifestyle communities. A portion of every year’s proceeds are donated to charities that help preserve the places of our inspiration. Because one of these places is our planet, beginning in 2008, the Festival will purchase carbon offsets to counteract its carbon footprint.
Started in 2005, this festival has quickly become a popular yearly event based in Jackson, Wyoming. For the next three nights, films will be shown at Walk Festival Hall in Teton Village concluding with The People’s Choice Ceremony Sunday in the town of Jackson at the Center for the Arts … sure to be a good time had by all.
