film collecting, digital archiving, archival exhibition and film  
festivals, as well as other practices of creating and maintaining  
cinematic heritage not directly associated with the archive. We  
welcome the participation of filmmakers, archivists, film curators,  
scholars and students. Come to the sunny southwest in February!
