Created in the White House Rose Garden by presidential mandate in 1965, the American Film Institute (AFI) is America’s promise to preserve the heritage of the motion picture, to honor the artists and their work and to educate the next generation of storytellers. A non-profit educational and cultural organization, AFI provides leadership in film, television and digital media and is dedicated to initiatives that engage the past, the present and the future of the moving image arts.
AFI programs include the AFI Catalog of Feature Films and Archive, an authoritative record of American film in words and pictures; the AFI Life Achievement Award, now in it's 44th year, which each June honors a master of the art form; AFI Awards, honoring the most outstanding movies and TV programs each year; AFI FEST, a showcase of the most highly anticipated films and performances of the year; AFI DOCS, the largest documentary festival in the U.S.; AFI Silver Theatre in the Washington, D.C. area, exhibiting both new and classic films 365 days of the year; and the AFI Conservatory, which has been consistently recognized as among the leading film schools in the world, offering a Master of Fine Arts degree in six filmmaking disciplines.
The American Film Institute’s Board of Trustees includes leaders of the motion picture and television communities and leaders from global goods and services companies who have devoted their lives to the art of the moving image.
