The Greater Park Circle Film Society is a 100% volunteer-run, 501(c)3 nonprofit. It was founded in August of 2008 by four people who live and work in Park Circle, and set out with three main goals:

• To present films not shown in local commercial theaters
• To educate about the art of film
• To foster civic engagement and community outreach

Values

Film is an art experience, with a unique ability to bring people together and strengthen community ties. It is a shared experience that adds meaning, value, and relevance to our lives. We celebrate and promote the artistic elements of the medium, nurture and promote the art of filmmaking, and enlarge the public square through collaboration and dialogue.

Mission

Our mission is to screen quality films, educate the public, and engage in community development.

Vision

The Greater Park Circle Film Society has a vision to become an anchor for film and community in the Lowcountry. We seek to showcase local, national, and international filmmakers. We connect aspiring filmmakers with each other and with investors; further community development through collaborations with neighborhoods and other non-profits; and advance knowledge and appreciation about cinema and the filmmaking process.
