The River Bend Film Festival has recently received a generous grant from the “Paul Saltzgaber Memorial Fund for Reading, Writing & the Arts of the Community Foundation of St. Joseph County”, which goes directly toward bringing in our guest speaker Lloyd Kaufman.

Paul was a local filmmaker who had his work screened at our festival in the past when it was held at Indiana University South Bend.  A huge thank you to his parents, Connie and Mark Saltzgaber, for their support of the River Bend Film Festival, as well as to Angela Butiste at the Community Foundation of St. Joseph County.  We appreciate your support of local filmmaking. A big thank you to our sponsor Mid America Filmmakers for being the non-for-profit receiver of the grant for our use at the festival for educational purposes.
