About
Auckland Film Society is a non-profit incorporated society and a registered charitable organisation. We are a member of the New Zealand Federation of Film Societies, which has been screening films throughout the country for over 70 years.
Your annual subscription contributes to programming services, venue hire and administration costs. AFS thanks Foundation North and Waitemata Local Board for their generous support, and our local supporters, acknowledged here and in our brochure and Close Up magazine.
Auckland Film Society is run by a committee of volunteers elected from the general membership at our Annual General Meeting each April. Current committee members are Mark Andersen, Alison Ashton, Simon Erceg, Robyn Harper, Andrew Lockett (Chair), Gorjan Markovski, Jane McKenzie, Craig Ranapia, Carmel Riordan, Tayla-Rose Scully and Marjorie Sprecher. Our 2019 AGM was on Monday 29 April, following the screening of I am Not Your Negro. Meet in the cinema lobby after the film. All AFS members welcome to attend.
We acknowledge the generous assistance of the Institut Français and the Embassy of France, the Goethe-Institut, and the Confucius Institute, Victoria University of Wellington. Programming by Michael McDonnell, New Zealand Federation of Film Societies.
