About the Garden State Film Festival: The Garden State Film Festival was envisioned by 25-year film industry veteran Diane Raver and the late Hollywood actor Robert Pastorelli in 2002. Since its 2003 launch, thousands of films have made their public premiers and hundreds of thousands of people from around the world have attended. Previously held in Asbury Park, the annual festival moved to Atlantic City in 2014 with financial and operational support from the Casino Reinvestment Development Authority (CRDA). GSFF now serves as a major component of the strategic plan to promote arts and culture in Atlantic City in order to re-establish the resort city as a premier Mid-Atlantic destination. The GSFF is a 501©3 non-profit organization. GSFF 2016 Sponsors:
