Sponsorship Opportunities

Sponsors are invited to a social hour preceding the festival. Enjoy heavy hors d’oeuvres, chat with other storytelling enthusiasts, and hear a 30-minute keynote presentation.

*All sponsors may put items out on a sponsors table in the lobby during the festival.

 The Wild and Working Lands Film Festival brings our campus and community together to better understand our current world and work toward a future where people and natural environments prosper together. We invite you to be part of this inspiring event.
