A LETTER FROM THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
Dear Film Cincinnati community;
In the mid of March, the world was impeded with an immense disruption, which has since evolved into a trying time for all. This virus, on a worldwide scale, has forced all to slow down, pause, pivot, and challenge us on how to resume charging forward.
Information one day is old news by the next. In an effort to keep moving forward and upward, we hope to provide our community with resources and information.
We also offer our endless gratitude to the heroes facing this pandemic head-on: doctors, nurses, custodial crew, truck drivers, retail providers, and the fearless volunteers jumping in to help everywhere.
Stay united, safely.
Kristen Schlotman, Executive Director of Film Cincinnati
