Housing a state-of-the-art theater complex, a 27,000 square-foot Media Arts Lab, and a residence for international filmmakers, the JBFC campus provides opportunities for people of all ages to discover, explore, and learn through the power of film, media and 21st-century technology.

Program Description: The JBFC is a leader in the international movement to raise a generation of students equipped and inspired to express themselves using visual and aural media. All of our programs are grounded in 21st century literacy skills. See a full schedule of classes and workshops on the website at http://www.burnsfilmcenter.org As communication and technology continue to evolve, it is vital that we provide students of all ages with the skills and tools needed to fully participate, engage, and succeed in a global society.
