Based in Austin, Texas, the Austin Film Society is a mid-sized nonprofit organization in the Movies and Sound Recording industry, founded in 1985 by filmmaker Richard Linklater. It supports filmmakers through grants and related services to advance artistic projects and careers, and it seeks to strengthen Austin and Texas as a creative hub. The organization also serves the community by bringing people together around film and by connecting local makers to broader industry networks. AFS operates Austin Studios, a 20-acre production facility, to attract and grow the creative media ecosystem, and Austin Public, a training and collaboration space for diverse mediamakers. The AFS Cinema programs repertory and first-run arthouse cinema and hosts premieres and events, including the Texas Film Awards, to highlight Texas filmmakers within a national and international context. In 2026, AFS announced a partnership with MPS Studios to provide access to professional equipment for filmmakers seeking to tell powerful stories and expand independent cinema's reach.
