History

The Anchorage International Film Festival was founded in 2001 by Tony Sheppard. Since its inception the festival has grown to become the largest and only multi-genre film festival in Alaska.[9]

In November 30, 2018, Anchorage was hit with a 7.0 earthquake on Opening Night. The Bear Tooth was heavily damaged. AIFF quickly found a new venue and opened one day late.[10]
