WHAT IS MOUNTAINFILM ON TOUR?

MISSION - Mountainfilm on Tour is dedicated to educating and inspiring audiences about issues that matter, cultures worth exploring, environments worth preserving, and conversations worth sustaining.

Mountainfilm on Tour inspires us – it informs us; it challenges us; it makes us laugh; it even makes us cry; it makes us mad as hell and, above all, it shows us the power of film to change the world.

In 2000, the Mountainfilm in Telluride festival embarked on a new journey – Mountainfilm on Tour. Each year, a selection of films from the international film festival are taken on the road to reach audiences who otherwise wouldn’t have a chance to experience the festival. Those films display themes of adventure, mountaineering, remarkable personalities and important environmental and social messages.

Mountainfilm on Tour is hosted by schools, universities, outdoor organizations, other film festivals, retailers, environmental groups, museums, libraries and MORE! Each show is custom-tailored to the venue, event and community in question, and is often used as a fund-raiser for other non-profit organizations.

Outdoors for All Foundation has hosted Mountainfilm on Tour since 2005. The festival has grown immensely in popularity in the last few years going from about 180 attending to over 600 in just a years time! All ticket proceeds from the night of the show go to support the Outdoors for All Foundation’s mission of enriching the quality of life for children and adults with disabilities through outdoor recreation. For only ten dollars you can make a big difference in one of our participants lives AND get to see an amazing evening of films (we show new films each night).

Mountainfilm has always been associated with high-caliber films and a commitment to social and environmental issues. With Mountainfilm on Tour, anyone can now bring that spirit to their community and invite audiences to celebrate, to contemplate, and most importantly, to get involved.
