Entertainment

To showcase the work of talented minority women filmmakers through the production of film festivals, script readings among other developmental projects.

Education

To produce industry panel discussions, workshops, seminars that foster continued learning and nurture growth.

Enterprise

To develop a database of contacts within the film and television industry consisting of writers, producers, directors, actors, tech people and general information that would be accessible to aspiring and working filmmakers.

In addition, African American Women in Cinema recognizes, promotes and encourages diversity and cultural exchange by actively seeking out both creative and business collaboration and alliances with any other organizations that share similar goals and ideals.
