Description
Join the Toronto Reel Asian International Film Festival (Reel Asian) for our third annual Lunar New Year Fundraiser with a 10-course banquet dinner and traditional lion dance to celebrate the Year of the Rooster.
This year, we are once again featuring a Silent Auction to provide more opportunities for charitable giving. Please email betty@reelasian.com to donate auction prizes.
Fundraising proceeds will directly support Reel Asian’s year-round and festival youth programs that help culturally diverse and newcomer youth from the GTA examine issues of identity and belonging through media arts, while providing leadership opportunities, education and job-skills training in film and creative production.
These initiatives include Unsung Voices, our summer video production workshop where youth make films for the first time. 2017 will mark the sixth edition of this initiative, and your donations help us keep this program free and accessible to all.
Ticket price: $115 per person (full-price tickets are eligible for a $60 tax receipt). Each ticket also includes invitations to:
the 2017 Opening Night gala film and party
the world premiere of the 6th edition of Unsung Voices
Unable to attend but still want to support us? Sponsor a young Asian Canadian filmmaker's seat and dinner! You get all the same tax receipt benefits and we'll make sure a new or emerging filmmaker is invited to attend the Lunar New Year dinner and participate in this valuable networking opportunity.
Reel Asian is Canada’s largest pan-Asian film festival showcasing local and international Asian films from around the world. Celebrating our 21st year in 2017, the festival has grown from a 3-day grassroots event to an organization that presents films all year long as well as an annual 11-day festival together attracting over 11,000 attendees each year.
