Become a 2026 Glimmerglass Film Days Sponsor
Otsego 2000 is working hard to craft the 14th Glimmerglass Film Days, November 11 – 15, with more than 30 film screenings, shorts programs, parties, guided walks, filmmaker talks, art, books, and events. Thanks to the loyalty of our sponsors and supporters, we continue to thrive. The Film Days audience continues to expand, filling screenings and events to capacity! Our growth and staying power are made possible by the generosity of sponsors like you. See NEW SPONSOR LEVELS and benefits for this season with stats from Film Days 2025!
As a valued sponsor, you will get your company's name and ad in front of the loyal and growing Film Days audience that spans across New York State. Many audience members carry the program with them to refer to throughout the festival and then hold on to them as a keepsake. The program and other sponsor mentions -- on a thank you reel before each film as well as on the website and social media -- reinforce your company's generous support of a cherished cultural event. And, several sponsorship levels include film tickets/passes, party tickets, so you get to experience Film Days along with your current and potential customers.
Our Film Days theme for 2026 is Second Nature, using the theme second nature as a lens, we’ll explore humanity’s complex relationship with the natural world. Experience stories about people who, through hard work and dedication, create and foster, protect and innovate. Films will examine how nature adapts to climate change and human interventions. In these challenging times, we need to celebrate our shared ability to persevere. Along with films that explore humanity’s complex relationship with the natural world, Film Days showcases the beauty of fall in Otsego County and encourages people to shop and dine locally. Our sponsors’ generous support propelled Film Days through its first decade. We would appreciate your continued support. Sponsoring Film Days offers your business multiple benefits and connects you with a loyal and important customer base. We look forward to welcoming you as a 2026 sponsor!
