Youth Education
A fun and meaningful forum for education, understanding and awareness, the San Francisco Film Society’s Youth Education program introduces students to the art of filmmaking and celebrates both the differences and the shared values of the many cultural groups that make up the global community. The year-round program aims to develop media literacy, broaden insights into other cultures, enhance foreign language aptitude, develop critical thinking skills and inspire a lifelong appreciation of cinema. Through film screenings, media presentations, interactive discussions, filmmaker visits to schools, study guides and professional development, we strive to cultivate students’ imaginations, facilitate their awareness as filmgoers and empower them as true global citizens.
Since 1991, the SFFS Youth Education program has reached more than 40,000 Bay Area schoolchildren and 2,500 teachers from more than 250 educational institutions.
All programs are designed to meet the Visual and Performing Arts Content Standards for California public schools, providing vital media resources for teaching artistic perception, creative expression, aesthetic valuing, historical and cultural dimensions of the arts, and the means for connecting and applying what is learned through film to other curricula and careers.
The San Francisco Film Society Education Program is made possible by the generous support of:
Dexter F. & Dorothy H. Baker Foundation
Tin Man Fund
Nellie Wong Magic of Movies Fund
Louise M. Lurie Foundation

“I can’t think of a single screening we have attended that has not met a curriculum standard. I also can’t tell you the number of times that a film has been referenced in our discussions about U.S. and world history and politics. ‘Tell me and I’ll forget; show me and I may remember; involve me and I’ll understand.’” —Homeschool Parent/Teacher
