WELCOME
Welcome to Minnesota Women in Film and Television. We invite you to take a look around the site to become acquainted with us.
The Minnesota chapter of WIFT was formally established in 2005. It joins 40 other Women in Film chapters with 10,000 global members. Locally, we are a growing, all-volunteer organization, made up of women who work in film, television and new media in Minnesota. We exist to educate and support women in these industries. In the process, we share ideas, connect with each other, and create momentum that benefits careers. We also have fun.
