Now in its 20th year, the Bellingham Human Rights Film Festival continues to be an opportunity for becoming more knowledgeable and actively engaged. During that time, we have presented hundreds of films – free of charge – in venues county-wide. These encompass a range of critical issues, including harms to environment, challenges facing poor or marginalized people, and activism of youth, women, those on the move, and indigenous communities. We have provided over 250 of these films to local libraries, and invite everyone to visit our website to see their availability as well as lineups for each year of our festival: [email protected]. This year, we offer 30 films, depicting ordinary people acting justly and courageously, alternatives to dominant or destructive global interests, and exemplary models for strengthening human rights and healthy, interconnected communities.

  • Strategic Plan Appendicies
    APPENDIX A: DESTINATION COMPETITIVE ANALYSIS Asheville / Buncombe County, North Carolina Asheville, North Carolina features layers of lush mountains that abound with adventure, profound cultural roots from literary giants to American royalty, and inspired locals whose passion projects jump from pop-up kitchens to performance art. Asheville has been a point of pilgrimage since the 1800s as a destination for inspiration, rejuvenation and self-expression. No wonder George W. Vanderbilt chose this Blue Ridge city for his greatest legacy, Biltmore. And perhaps why Lonely Planet named Asheville as the #1 destination in 2017, just one of many accolades for this hip mountain town. Beer is big in Asheville and only continues to grow. With 28 breweries in the city and 30 in Buncombe County, Asheville has the most breweries per capital in the country. Four additional breweries will open by the end of 2017, including Turgua Farmstead Brewing, set on a five-acre farm in Fairview and utilizing fruits and root vegetables. SmartAsset.com ranked Asheville #2 among "The Best Cities for Beer Drinkers" following a study that analyzed various sources of data (December 2015). Asheville is also a foodie town, with its own “Foodtopia” campaign to attract culinary tourists to its 250+ independent restaurants; six James Beard nominated chefs; 28 breweries; 14 farmers markets; one vegan butcher; 1,000+ family farms; one wild foods market, the first in the nation; three craft hard cideries using local apples; the fifth micro sake brewery in the nation; one rum distillery (the only one in Western N.C.); one kombucha bar, all local; one honey bar/boutique; one underground supper club with wild themes and secret locations; two insanely creative donut shops; two locations to get bean-to-bar local chocolate; one mushroom man tour guide; and the first woman to legally distill moonshine.

December 2017), who served as a volunteer on the Steering Committee for many years. Welcome to the 18th Annual Bellingham Human Rights Film Festival When democratic principles and rights are now more threatened, our festival brings together invaluable knowledge and people committed to working together for mutual wellbeing, equity, and world peace. This year we offer 25 films on a wide variety of topics, including environmental activism, health care, indigenous rights in the Americas, prisons, and women's issues. We are happy to have thirteen venues throughout the city and county. Most films at our primary venue, Fairhaven College Auditorium on the campus of Western Washington University, are followed by discussions facilitated by someone involved with making the film or by experts familiar with the issues they cover. Representatives and activists from local organizations are also available as resources for further learning and involvement. The program provides times and locations of films using two formats: by daily schedule, and by title along with all screening locations and times for each film. Note that some films are screened only once, others multiple times.
