Katherine Pertuso joins Ann Arbor Film Festival
From the Ann Arbor Film Festival
Ann Arbor — As we say farewell to the decade we welcome our new Communications and Marketing Manager, Katherine Pertuso. She will be leading the Ann Arbor Film Festival’s content and marketing strategy as well as supporting development activities. Katherine brings content marketing experience from her work with the Ann Arbor Art Center. She managed their social media presence, created graphics, photos, and videos.
The AAFF is “thrilled” to have Pertuso utilize her skill set to communicate in new and creative ways for the AAFF community.
About the Ann Arbor Film Festival
Founded in 1963, the Ann Arbor Film Festival is the oldest independent and experimental film festival in North America and is internationally recognized as a premier forum for film as an art form. The AAFF typically receives nearly 3,000 film submissions a year from more than 70 countries, and the festival serves as one of a handful of Academy Award–qualifying festivals in the United States. The AAFF is also a pioneer of the traveling film festival tour. Each year the touring programs visit more than 35 theaters, universities, museums, and micro cinemas around the world. The 57th Ann Arbor Film Festival takes place March 26–31, 2019. For more information, please visit aafilmfest.org, and be sure to join AAFF on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and Vimeo.
