The Film Biz Happy Hour, which is held on the 2nd Tuesday of every month, is a monthly, charitable event that brings together Washington area film, video and media professionals. Writers, directors, producers, cinematographers, composers, editors, actors and voice talent all attend to schmooze. For those who frequent the Film Biz Happy Hour, it's a great opportunity to hang out with colleagues and friends on a monthly basis, all while giving back to the greater community. Once The Film Biz Happy Hour was fully underway, it became a charitable event. Since September of '97, Film Biz has collected donations at the door, all of which benefits a different local charity every month.
All donations are for the charity of the month and are certainly appreciated.
If you cannot attend Film Biz but would like to contribute to the charity of the month, you are certainly welcome to send your check directly to the charity. On the memo line of the check, please remember to mention that your contribution is part of the total Film Biz contribution. That way, your donation can be earmarked along with the other Film Biz monies for direct services. Endorsed by 17 local film and video organizations , The Film Biz Happy Hour is a charitable event produced by Film Biz Promotions, which accepts corporate sponsorships . Allison Silberberg , the founder and director of The Film Biz Happy Hour, is the president of Film Biz Promotions.
