OUR MISSION: To celebrate and promote Italian culture and heritage in New Mexico with special events, partnerships and the annual NM Italian Film & Culture Festival.
Established in 2010, Italian Festivals of New Mexico is a 501(c)(3) non-profit, all volunteer organization whose mission is to Promote Italian Culture in New Mexico. In fulfillment of its mission, IFNM produces and promotes events and activities that celebrate, educate and inform about the richness of Italian culture, history and tradition.
IFNM's fundraising centerpiece and flagship event, the annual NM Italian Film & Culture Festival, has long been dedicated to supporting children's causes. A multi-day celebration of Italian cinema and culture, the festival affords the opportunity to enjoy the Italian experience through events and highly acclaimed contemporary Italian films while benefitting New Mexico's children.
