Join AAF Birmingham next Thursday, August 16th, as we welcome Chloe Cook, Executive Director of the Sidewalk Film Center and Cinema. Now in its 20th year, the Sidewalk Film Festival has been the organization's premiere event and we are excited to hear her perspective on the event's continued success. 

Chloe will be giving away a pair of weekend passes, so don't miss out!

Chloe is a native of Talladega, Alabama and received her BA in Communication from Auburn University. Chloe has served in the role of Executive Director at Sidewalk since 2009. Under her leadership ticket sales for the annual Sidewalk Film Festival have quadrupled and the Fest has been recognized multiple times by international film industry press, most recently being named one of the "50 Film Festivals Worth the Entry Fee" (MovieMaker magazine 2017) and twice named one of the "Top 25 Coolest Film Festivals in the World" (MovieMaker magazine, 2015, 2014). Currently Chloe is leading a $4.9 million dollar capital campaign to fund the Sidewalk Film Center + Cinema, a 11,000+ square foot, two screen movie theatre and film education center that will be located in the lower level of the Pizitz Building, in the heart of the Historic Theatre District.
