Social Justice + Art = Social Change

“Amplify Voices. Ignite Change. Redefine the World Through Art and  Film.”

PTAFF 2025
LABOR AND WAGE EQUITY

2025 edition of PTAFF shines a spotlight on Labor and Wage Equity. This year, we are curating powerful narratives that explore the future of work, the fight for fair compensation, and the resilience of workers and creators globally.

 

Through film, art, and dialogue, PTAFF 2025 will elevate stories that reveal both the obstacles and the possibilities that define today’s workforce — honoring the dignity of labor and the unyielding spirit of those striving for justice, fairness, and opportunity.

Our Mission

​​At the Pembroke Taparelli Arts and Film Festival (PTAFF), we believe in the transformative power of storytelling to inspire change, amplify underrepresented voices, and build a more equitable world. By blending art with activism, we create a platform for visionary creators and changemakers to confront social injustices, spark dialogue, and empower future generations with tools, opportunities, and a shared commitment to shaping a brighter future.

Artivism by any medium Necessary

Honoring Assata Shakur:

A Legacy of Resistance and Liberation

At the Pembroke Taparelli Arts and Film Festival, we honor Assata Shakur freedom fighter, writer, and revolutionary voice whose courage continues to inspire generations of activists and artivists around the world.

Through her words and her unwavering stand against systemic injustice, Assata reminds us that art and activism are inseparable forces in the fight for liberation. Her autobiography, Assata: An Autobiography, remains a seminal work of resistance literature illuminating the struggles of Black women, political prisoners, and movements for social and economic justice.

Her legacy challenges us to speak truth through art, create fearlessly, and reimagine freedom on our own terms.

 

“It is our duty to fight for our freedom.
It is our duty to win.” – Assata Shakur
