Corporate Sponsorship

Sponsorship at BlackStar offers corporate groups a way to support your company’s business objectives and to align your name, brand, products and services, with our growing suite of programming and network of influential and creative participants.

BlackStar produces year-round programs including film screenings, exhibitions, an annual film festival, filmmaker seminar, film production lab, and a journal of visual culture. To support this work, we offer a number of program sponsorship opportunities throughout the year as well as for our Luminary Gala. Available opportunities are provided below.

BlackStar Film Festival 2024

BlackStar Film Festival is an annual celebration of the visual and storytelling traditions of the African diaspora and global communities of color — showcasing films by Black, Brown, and Indigenous people from around the world.
