CIFF announces its 2011 film program April 14 at the Link Gallery in Cheyenne

The Cheyenne International Film Festival (CIFF) gets underway April 14 when its film program is released at the Link Gallery, 124 W. Lincolnway, Cheyenne. The reception will be catered by Suite 1901 with a wine tasting by the Table Mountain Vinyards of Huntley, Wyoming. It is held in conjunction with the First Thursday Art Design & Dine Walk through downtown Cheyenne.

The CIFF which opens at the Atlas Theatre May 19 will feature over 40 films of all genres from Wyoming, the U.S. and from around the world.

The CIFF Call2ACTion program links up with local nonprofit community-based issues. Films are screened with the organization or cause members participating on a panel discussing the film in the context of their local organization. This year’s Call2ACTion partners are the Safe House Cheyenne, the Wyoming Children’s Action Alliance, the VFW Post 1881, the Southeast Wyoming Intertribal Powwow Association and Grant Farms‘ Community Supported Agriculture program.

When released, the program is still subject to change based on the availability of filmmakers and celebrities. For more information, join the facebook page.
