In addition, PTAFF is committed to the following: Affirm the place the arts have in strengthening our universal commitment to Human Rights and Social Justice. Promote the arts as a powerful tool in the global dialogue of peace and mutual respect. Bring together international filmmakers, performers, artists and educators to present their work and share with community leaders and community audiences. Promote healing through the arts, celebrate rich cultures, and share diverse experiences locally and internationally. Create a pathway where socially conscious films and art work can be a part of mainstream film distribution.
