Festival of Cinema NYC is a 10-day film festival in Forest Hills, Queens, produced since 2017 by the nonprofit Festival of Cinema, Inc. The event runs screenings, panels, workshops, and seminars with local and international filmmakers, drawing about 5,000 attendees across its venues each edition. The audience reflects Central and South Queens: diverse, multicultural, and community-rooted, spanning film enthusiasts and emerging filmmakers at Regal UA Midway Theater to families and students at free events held at the Queens Library and Queens Center Mall. Partnerships with organizations serving foster youth and the deaf and hard-of-hearing community widen the reach further, backed by a social following near 9,500. Sponsors get an accessible, education-forward platform built on affordability and volunteer engagement, a natural fit for brands looking to support diversity, arts access, and cultural exchange in an underserved corner of New York City.
