Robert De Niro, Jane Rosenthal, and Craig Hatkoff founded the Tribeca Film Institute in the wake of September 11th to educate, entertain, and inspire filmmakers and film lovers alike. The Institute creates innovative programs that draw on the power of film to promote understanding, tolerance and global awareness. TFI also supports the cultural and economic revitalization of New York City and Lower Manhattan through arts-based initiatives that:
- Celebrate and promote film and filmmaking to people of all ages as a medium for self-expression and social action.
- Identify and encourage diverse voices from the US and around the world to participate in creating the cultural landscape.
- Develop new opportunities and access for those interested in film and the arts.
- Educate children, youth and adults about historical and emerging themes in culture.
The Tribeca Film Institute is a 501©(3) nonprofit organization. For more information, please contact us.
