Dear Friends,

With the passage of each year, we like to take a moment to reflect and look back on our archives—our archive of films, of exchanges, and experiences we’ve shared along the way. We’ve assembled this Reel to remind ourselves (and share with you!) of the things we’ve done, places we’ve been, and the people we’ve met along the journey—and to see if it offers any clues or lessons for the year ahead.

Through this exercise, we are reminded of the great intensity and heaviness of the past year, but also of the profound privilege of making creative work alongside and in dialogue with incredible artists, institutions, and thinkers whose work and contributions to our world deeply inspire us.

We want to thank you for entrusting us with with these voices and with these stories and for your continued support and friendship throughout this year. We look forward to staying in touch, and to an exciting, creative, and adventure-filled 2025!

Warmest wishes, and happiest New Year!

The RAVA Team
