Dear Friends and Colleagues,
Cal Humanities is pleased to announce that guidelines for the 2015 California Documentary Project grant are now available and I’m writing to ask for your help in sharing them with your respective communities. This year’s deadline is October 15.
As always we are looking for high-quality film, radio, and new media productions that document California subjects and issues and that use the humanities to provide context, depth and perspective. Funding amounts range from $10,000 to $50,000 and a cash or in-kind match is required. Please note that California residency is not a requirement for eligibility.
For complete program guidelines, application instructions, dates and times for informational grant workshops, and a list of previously supported projects, please visit www.calhum.org/grants/california-documentary-project-grant.
Cal Humanities is an independent non-profit and a state partner of the National Endowment for the Humanities. Since 2003, we have awarded over $4 million to projects that document the California experience, including The Case Against 8, Regarding Susan Sontag, Ruben Salazar: Man in the Middle, Seeking Asian Female, We Were Here: The AIDS Years in San Francisco, Everyday Sunshine: The Story of Fishbone, Romeo is Bleeding, and many more.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Best,
John
