MARIE DRESSLER FOUNDATION

about

We are here to celebrate "the love of film".

We do this in many ways.  Firstly, our annual Vintage Film Festival, now in its 29th year presents films from the earliest days of filmmaking through to the 1960s and includes silent films with live piano accompaniment.

We own and operate the "Canadian Women In Film Museum" celebrating the roles of Canadian women in the film industry, past and present. The museum features permanent exhibitions for trailblazers Marie Dressler, Mary Pickford, and Norma Shearer.  The museum is located in the heritage natal home of Marie Dressler in Cobourg, Ontario, Canada. We continue our fundraising to complete the expansion of the museum.

We support the aspirations of graduating secondary school students in Northumberland County through our educational assistance programs.
