The center's diverse programming features compelling film retrospectives, an annual silent film extravaganza, exclusive film festivals, esteemed industry guests, educational initiatives, screenings of cinematic gems, and platforms for budding filmmakers to shine. Proudly constructed by the Borough of Fort Lee, the BFC is lovingly managed by the "FRIENDS OF BARRYMORE FILM CENTER," a registered 501 c-3 non-profit organization with NJ Charity #CH4498600.
