Stories of adventure have the power to ignite positive change in our communities and our world. Through adventure, we find our best selves and encourage those around us to do the same. That’s why we curate and share meaningful adventure stories that inspire communities to live by our 5 points:
Every year, we come together as an outdoor-loving family to get inspired and motivated. Intimate yet inclusive, the laid back vibe of our festival is a direct reflection of its birthplace, the Carbondale community. Founded in 2007 by Julie Kennedy, the 5point Adventure Film Festival showcases curated, soulful outdoor films, art, and performances—all shown in one common space. Everyone watches together, bonded in a shared emotional experience and returns home feeling full of motivation, creativity and perspective.

That’s why we created a way for groups all over the world to experience the powerful transformation of 5Point Film. When people gather to experience meaningful stories together, amazing change can take place on a personal and community level. Hosting a 5Point can allow your organization or business to raise awareness, funds or simply inspire towards a common goal.
Host A 5Point ShowThe 5Point Film Fund supports filmmakers challenging the storytelling status quo through small monetary grants. We connect artists and filmmakers with opportunities to showcase their work to a network of other creatives, the outdoor industry and beyond. Over the years, 5Point Film Fund has helped make many film projects possible that have gone on to win awards and tour the world.
