About ASIFA-Hollywood Events

ASIFA-Hollywood continues to honor its founding goal by presenting films and film makers from around the world to its members. Recent screenings have included Waltz with Bashir, Persepolis, Secret of Kells and many others. Often these screenings are followed by a Q & A with the film makers moderated by ASIFA-Hollywood board member Jerry Beck. Beck has also screened for members hundreds of rare films from his own collection of classic American cartoons. Tom Sito, vice president of ASIFA-Hollywood since 1992, created a series of "Evenings With" where he interviewed past masters like Joe Grant, Dave Tendlar, Bill Melendez and Maurice Noble. In 1990 he organized the 100th birthday banquet for Betty Boop creator Grim Natwick, which became the last great gathering of the legendary artists from Hollywood's golden era. He has also created a 50th anniversary reunion picnic for the original Disney Studio strikers, as well as anniversary reunions of artists and creators of The Little Mermaid and The Iron Giant. See Past Events for more information on these events.

More screenings and events are in the planning stages. Check back often for updates and log in for RSVP information.
