The City's 3rd Annual Lowell Film Festival could not have achieved success without the help of so many people. We thank our partners, the University of Massachusetts Lowell, Massachusetts Cultural Council, and the Lowell Film Collaborative for their support and dedication to the project. We also thank the City of Lowell and the Cultural Organization of Lowell (COOL) for their organizational and staff support of the Fest.

Thank you to our funders, and to those who supported us in-kind: Massachusetts Cultural Council, 119 Gallery, University of Massachusetts Lowell, Chelmsford Telemedia, Lowell National Historic Park, and Pollard Memorial Library.

To our venue hosts -- thank you for opening your doors to the Film Festival: Lowell National Historical Park, Pollard Memorial Library, 119 Gallery, UMass Lowell, and Caffe Paradiso (for hosting our volunteer meetings).

Thank you to La Boniche, Athenian Corner, Mambo Grill, Cobblestones, Centro, Ricardo's Cafe Trattoria, Blue Taleh, Arthur's Paradise Diner, Vic's, Ray Robinson Sandwich Shop, Cameo Diner and Club Diner for rounding out the festivities with breakfast specials and those wonderful 1930's libations.

And finally, we thank our incredibly devoted and fantastic volunteers, AND you -- our audience. Our volunteers were the backbone of the project, and made the entire weekend possible. They welcomed visitors, shuffled signage around, counted heads, introduced films and guest speakers, tidied up venues, and did all of that with smiles on their faces! Our audiences CAME OUT, and supported the event. Our hard work would mean nothing if no one had arrived to be witness to it. Our volunteers and audiences: two very necessary components to this Festival, and future ones!

We hope to see you in April 2011 for 4th Annual Lowell Film Festival!
