IMI FEST
IMI Fest is a first-of-its-kind festival, produced by the Independent Media Initiative (IMI), to celebrate independent media creators who make and share their work online.
The centerpiece of the festival is the presentation of the IMI Awards, which honor exceptional independent creators and celebrate the intrinsic educational and artistic value of their work. They were created in 2023 to shine a light on these creators and in recognition of the power and ubiquity of independent media.
