We are so excited to have this event at Blue, a trendy and stylish Albanian-owned bar that serves Balkan-inspired drinks and snacks.
The Albanian Film Association is a non-profit, volunteer based organization created and co-run by four Albanian women that creates programming to celebrate and showcase Albanian film.
Here are the projects we are looking to fund in 2019:
* Our main event, the Albanian Short Film Night, a free event that showcases short films from Albania and Kosovo from young directors
* LGBTQ+ focused Albanian film screenings and an initiative to foster LGBTQ+ Albanian community
* Creation of more art and culture based Albanian events and spaces for networking and community building
* Expanding film screening events to Albania and Kosovo in June
All of our events are free to the public or fundraisers for our free events and we operate on a purely volunteer basis. We are passionate about Albanian films and the celebration and elevation of Albanian art and film culture and Albanian stories.
