The SIDEWALK MOVING PICTURE FESTIVAL was created to bring new films to a new audience. Since its debut in 1999, filmmakers from across the country and around the world have come to Birmingham to screen their work at Sidewalk and been thrilled to discover fresh, enthusiastic crowds eager to devour new independent cinema. Since its debut, Sidewalk has been embraced whole-heartedly by the community, and has grown to one of the Top Ten Film Festival Getaways in the country. Today, Sidewalk is not just a weekend festival, but encompasses a broad range of year-round programs to inspire, support and encourage films and filmmaking in Alabama, including the Sidewalk Cinematheque, the Sidewalk Salon, the Alabama Student Filmmaking Competition, and the Sidewalk Scramble. Birmingham Beverage is proud to be an inaugural sponsor and ongoing supporter.

C.I.R.A. exists to promote dining in independently owned restaurants and to serve the interests of the Independent Restaurateur in America.
