About The Zeitgeist Media Festival

Recognizing the power of art and media to help change the world, the annual “Zeitgeist Media Festival” (ZMF) bridges the artistic and activist communities in the hope to inspire change. It recognizes that needed changes in the structural and economic workings of society can only manifest in tandem with a personal and social transformation of values in each of us.

Art is considered the most powerful tool we have to bridge these levels of awareness and inspire action for change. The ZMF works to unify the world through this expression with the basic ethos that we are one species sharing one planet and it is time the world learns to work together for the betterment of all before it is too late.

The Inaugural Event occurred in 2011 with over 40 events across 20 countries with unique presenters and performances. By 2012, the Los Angeles Main Event increased in recognition with notable participants including Tim Kring, Rutger Hauer, Marianne Williamson, and many more.

While started by the non-profit organization The Zeitgeist Movement, the ZMF is open to any socially conscious group which wishes to express change and a better, peaceful world through the power of art. All ZMF Events are Non-Profit and are organized and run by volunteers.

Mission Statement

The Mission of The Zeitgeist Media Festival is to unify the world through annual awareness events that bridge the difference between all nations, races, classes, genders and creeds; to understand we all share the same basic needs; to understand we are truly One Family sharing One Habitat and that our world views and hence societal approaches should reflect this foundational Global Perspective.

Network

The ZMF’s main YouTube channel and its Facebook page are good ways to follow everything happening. This is a grassroots, non-corporate concept and the success of each year’s events depends on the support of the community.
