“The founders, Lande and Reggie are pioneers in community building in a time where it is crucial to empower one another versus rely solely on larger more traditional systems. I’m extremely proud to be a Black Film Space member and I am excited for the ways in which this community will expand. ””

Black Film Space is more than a series of events—it’s a growing ecosystem for filmmakers.

Black filmmakers don’t lack talent—they lack access.

Your monthly donation helps close that gap—creating consistent opportunities for filmmakers to grow, connect, and build sustainable careers over time.

Your support helps Black filmmakers:

  • Access consistent workshops, mentorship, and career-building programs

  • Attend events that remain accessible and affordable

  • Grow at every stage of their careers—from emerging to established

  • Build within a community designed for long-term support

When you give monthly, you’re not just supporting—you’re helping build something that lasts.

This work continues because of consistent support.

WHAT IT MEANS TO BE A BFS CHAMPION

BFS Champions are a community of supporters helping build an institution for Black filmmakers.

As a Champion, you’re not on the outside looking in—you’re part of the work and the community you’re helping sustain. You’ll:

  • Stay connected to the real impact of your support—filmmaker wins, milestones, and growth

  • Be invited into screenings, conversations,
    and gatherings with the community you’re
    helping build

  • Build relationships with filmmakers and supporters shaping the future of Black film

Join the Circle

Whether it’s $5 or $250 a month, your support helps sustain the work—creating consistent opportunities for Black filmmakers to grow, connect, and build lasting careers
