The Paul Robeson Fund For Independent Media
Funding Exchange
666 Broadway, Suite 500
New York, NY 10012
Program Officer: Janis L.Strout
The primary purpose of the Robeson Fund is to support independent
media productions that are not only compelling politically and artistically,
but which must also be used as tools for progressive social change
activism and organizing. How you plan to distribute your film, video
or radio production is as important as the integrity of the project
itself. Media artists who are women, gay men and lesbians, disabled
or from communities of color or who have little recourse to other
funding sources due to the controversial nature of their projects
are particularly encouraged to apply. The Paul Robeson Fund for
Independent Media has one (1) cycle per year. Deadline is May 15,
award announcements are made in late August or early September.
Although the maximum grant amount is $15,000, most grants range
from $3,000-6,000.
Deadline: May 15
