Mountainfilm for Students

The Saugatuck Center for the Arts is proud to present its 22nd year bringing film into the classroom with Mountainfilm for Students. K-12 students travel around the world through the power of film – learning other cultures, traditions, stories, and spirits.

In 2025, we’ll explore stories about adventurous and brave youth their age, vibrant indigenous and multicultural stories, and behind-the-scenes lives of animals – just to name a few. Students love seeing the journey of unique careers, new skills, and defying odds.

In 2024, we enthusiastically welcomed students back into our theater for film-based field trips to the SCA. 1,268 students visited the SCA in person and 2,674 joined us virtually. We brought new experiences to a total of 3,962 students last year, and we can’t wait to open up a world of possibilities for more students again this year.
