For more than two decades, the Carsey-Wolf Center has worked to build a vibrant community of cinephiles, storytellers, and media-makers who share a passionate commitment to understanding our cultural landscape. By supporting accessible public programs, academic research initiatives, and innovative educational opportunities, all rooted in the expertise of leading scholars, artists, and industry practitioners, we build lasting connections through cinema and the screen arts.

When you donate to the Carsey-Wolf Center, you are supporting this important work. Your gift helps us cultivate a new generation of media storytellers through programs like our Storytelling for the Screen initiative; it plays a key role in keeping the Pollock Theater outfitted with state-of-the-art projection and sound equipment; and perhaps most importantly, it helps us connect UCSB students with exciting opportunities to refine their filmmaking skills, tell stories that matter, and take steps toward rewarding careers in the media industries.

At a time of major industrial and technological change, it’s more important than ever to cultivate a worldly, informed, and rigorous understanding of our moving-image culture. By bringing academics, cinephiles, students, artists, and the wider community together around compelling works of film, television, and screen art, this is exactly what the Carsey-Wolf Center aims to do. Give today, and be a part of this vital mission.
