Historia administrativa
The Kingston Film Council (KFC) was organized 1945 by a group of Kingstonians interested in Visual and Adult education. The first President was Mr. E. L. Earl. As a council many of the members were other organizations in and around Kingston. At its height there were over 100 member organizations . The Council acted as a distribution hub for films, supplier of rental equipment as well as hosting showings. Activities that the Council undertook were workshops on film utilization, training for Projectionists, outdoor showings and festivals. At various points the Council and the Department of Extension at Queen's University were quite interrelated.
KFC was a member of the Federation of Film Councils or Eastern Ontario which in turn was a member of the Ontario Association of Film Councils.
