The Pan African Film & Arts Festival isn’t just a once-a-year event—it’s a cultural force that lives and breathes 365 days a year. Through our year-round programming, PAFF continues to spotlight powerful stories from across the African diaspora by hosting special screenings, premieres, and cinematic experiences that bring communities together and drive real conversation.

Whether it’s an advanced studio screening, a grassroots documentary preview, a filmmaker Q&A, or a focus group test screening, PAFF offers filmmakers, studios, distributors, and cultural institutions a trusted platform to connect with a dynamic, engaged, and loyal audience that spans generations and backgrounds.

As the largest and most prestigious Black film festival in the U.S., PAFF has built a reputation for curating meaningful, high-impact experiences that not only celebrate Black creativity but also help shape industry narratives.
