JBFC Kids

JBFC Kids programming introduces young audiences to film by celebrating cherished stories both new and old, revisiting those that are overlooked, and highlighting cultures from around the world. It is our mission to cultivate a new generation of cinema lovers.

Starting November 2023, JBFC Kids expands to weekly screenings. As part of this series expansion, JBFC Kids will include sensory friendly screenings on the first Sunday of every month starting January 2024.
