​​

For more than 25 years, Kingdom County has  produced award-winning feature films and documentaries, live performances with internationally celebrated artists, and pioneering learning experiences in filmmaking, theater and writing. It was the parent non-profit of Semester Cinema through the 2024 iteration, and continues to support the program as an affiliated sponsor.
