BIPOC Filmmaker Meetup

A chance for local BIPOC filmmakers to meet similar creatives.

Join us for an inspiring evening of connection and collaboration! This event is dedicated to bringing together Black, Indigenous, and People of Colour in the filmmaking community. Meet local BIPOC creators, share your ideas, and network with others who are passionate about storytelling through film. Whether you’re a seasoned professional or just starting out, this is a space to celebrate diverse voices and spark new collaborations.

This event is sponsored by the Calgary Society of Independent Filmmakers. CSIF was founded in 1978 by a collective of twelve filmmakers who saw the growing need for film resources and film equipment on the traditional Treaty 7 territory of the Blackfoot Confederacy (Siksika, Kainai, Piikani), the Tsuut’ina, the Iyarhe Nakoda Nations, the Métis Nation (Region 3), also known as Calgary, Alberta. Now over 40 years later we are an integral part of the growing cultural community in Calgary and are excited about new collaborations and opportunities.
