COMMITTEE & STAFF
Our Steering and Screening committee members and volunteers are the backbone of the Tampa Bay Jewish Film Festival. Only through their hard work and commitment can we bring you, year after year, an exceptional Jewish Film Festival movie going experience. Our goal is to make the Tampa Bay Jewish Film Festival a positive and enjoyable experience to the festival committee members, volunteers, attendees and its supporters. Our objective is to become the premier Jewish cultural event serving the greater Tampa Bay area (Hillsborough, Pasco and Pinellas) and be a resource for guidance to other film festivals both on a national and international level.
The Tampa Bay Jewish Film Festival is produced by the Tampa Jewish Community Center, and the Suncoast Jewish Community Center.
