Student Awards Showcase
Winners of the Grillo and Goldfarb Awards
The Grillo family, the Goldfarb Foundation, and the University of Colorado Film
Studies Department present the Student Awards Showcase, offering grants to CU
Film Studies students enrolled in core production classes. Benefactor,
filmmaker and actor/teacher, Peter Goldfarb, funds the Goldfarb Awards
($5,000), while the Grillo Awards ($12,000) are drawn from a University of
Colorado Foundation fund set up in the early '90s by the founder and former
chair of the CU Film Studies Department, Virgil Grillo (1938-1994), whose
dedication and vision helped shepherd Film Studies from its modest
beginnings in the 1970s to an undergraduate degree program boasting over 500
majors. Awards are determined by a panel of judges made up of CU Film,
Studies faculty, outside professionals, and a Grillo family member. The award
winning films will be shown in tonight's program.
