Sprout Film Festival is a curated collection of films from the local Full Access High Desert vault of Sproutflix films. Each year, the Tower Theatre hosts a matinee and an evening film experience.
Sproutflix is “the world’s most comprehensive selection of films celebrating the lives and stories of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities.” The Sprout Film Festival’s mission is to inspire audiences, promote inclusion and support transformative filmmaking as an important part of social change. This unique event, which focuses exclusively on films that celebrate the diverse lives and creativity of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD), strives to challenge assumptions and breakdown stereotypes. By introducing thought-provoking, powerful films to inclusive audiences, we hope to promote acceptance, celebrate differences and shine some light to help make the invisible, visible.
We encourage everyone to attend! Please reach out if the ticket cost is a barrier. We work with community partners to ensure everyone has access to the festival.
