Thank you to the Maryland Film Office!

We wanted to thank some of this year's sponsors, including the Maryland Film Office. Thank you for all of your support for The Baltimore Women's Film Festival. We appreciate your assistance.

Here is some information about the office:

Maryland offers a rich array of landscapes from which to choose - from the mountains in the west across the rolling hills and farmlands of central Maryland to the beautiful waterfront and sandy beaches of the Eastern Shore. Architecture that spans the centuries from colonial to modern and illustrates a wide range of socio-economic backgrounds can be found throughout the state.

Maryland has a deep crew base experienced in every guild and trade. Over 650 IATSE members, over 3000 SAG members, and film sensitive teamsters all make Maryland the place you're shooting for.
