The Provincetown Film Society (PFS) is a year-round non-profit dedicated to continuing the founding mission of the Provincetown Art Colony – to provide a welcoming, nurturing and inspiring environment for boundless and authentic creative exploration – in film. From the time it was founded in 1998 the Society has been committed to serving its communities who are often outside of the mainstream, in the margins, or otherwise underserved – but have a voice critical to the evolution of artistic expression. It has also been dedicated to the celebration of Provincetown – an American treasure nestled amongst spectacular National Seashore beaches, and a shining example of diversity and inclusion.

Through the Provincetown International Film Festival Festival, Waters Edge Cinema (located in Whaler’s Wharf), Gabrielle A. Hanna Institute for film & media residencies and conferences the Society endeavors to provide year-round programming and support to aspiring, up-and-coming and established filmmakers, and to connect them with curious and engaged audiences globally.
