This funding opportunity provides support for the distribution of new works in film, video, sound, new-media, and media-installation. Funding is available from free103point9 through a regrant from New York State Council on the Arts' Electronic Media and Film Program. Grant awards assist artists in making works available to public audiences and may include, but are not limited to: moving image and sound works; duplication of preview, screening and exhibition copies; promotional materials including documentation and schematics of media-installation and new-media works. The rental or purchase of equipment essential for exhibition/distribution by individual artists is also eligible. Artists may request funding support up to a maximum amount of $10,000.

Successful grantees are also awarded the opportunity to work with a project mentor who will offer guidance as grantees execute their distribution and exhibition plans. This mentor will have expertise in the grantees' specific genre of media art.

Details regarding a 2010 application deadline (for the 2011 grant program) will be announced in the spring. Please sign-up for free103point9's email updates to ensure you receive notifications pertaining to this and other opportunities.

Applications are submitted electronically through an online application process. Information about past grantees as well as the online application process may be accessed through the links provided in the right hand column of this page.
