The Princeton Environmental Film Festival is sponsored by the Princeton Public Library. The festival goal is to use film as a medium to encourage discussion about the environment, raise awareness about environmental concerns, and stimulate community action to develop and make more environmentally sustainable choices and create more livable communities. The festival is planned by librarians and community members, and the program is made up of documentary films complemented by some of the filmmakers, community activists, business leaders, scientists and others working on a broad range of environmental issues.
We were thrilled that the Princeton Environmental Film Festival (PEFF) will receive the Public Library Association - Highsmith Innovation and Excellence in Programming Award at the American Library Association Conference in Chicago in July 2009. It honors a public library’s innovative or creative service program with a plaque and a $2,000 honorarium from the award’s sponsor, Highsmith, Inc. The 2010 PEFF schedule is set, please check it out. PEFF schedules from previous years: Please contact me with any questions about the films or other events from previous years or about the 2010 Princeton Environmental Film Festival. Thanks -- Susan Conlon, Coordinator, Princeton Environmental Film Festival |
