EUROPEAN FILM FESTIVAL 2008 THE EUROPEAN FILM FESTIVAL CORPORATION

During the previous European Film Festivals the College of Liberal and Fine Arts with the University of Texas at San Antonio was assisting the organizers of the Festival by hosting the funds received from different sources, among other tasks.

The numbers of participants increasing we have created, in agreement with UTSA, a 501 (c) 3 not for profit corporation called "The European Film Festival Corporation". It was a necessary step to have access to private and public funding.

The Corporation has been registered with the State of Texas in March 2008 and has filed for a tax exemption status with the Internal Revenue Service.

All the government related entities participating to the Festival are represented on an Advisory Board
(Article 10 of the Bylaws):
