Calling all local filmmakers.
Our program pays local filmmakers to create impactful documentaries that showcase community stories. With funding and resources, we empower them to explore relevant social, cultural, and historical topics. Participants can collaborate with community members and access mentorship, ensuring each project reflects authentic perspectives. By supporting local talent, we foster creativity and promote awareness of our region's rich tapestry.
