BENT Film Festival Grant

The BENT Film Festival Grant, administered by the Sacramento Region Community Foundation, supports creative individuals working on specific public-facing projects. The program is designed for filmmakers and artists who self-identify as members of the LGBTQ+ community. To qualify, applicants must reside in one of the following California counties: Sacramento, El Dorado, Placer, Sutter, Yolo, or Yuba. Eligible candidates must be actively working on a film or art project intended for public presentation.

This grant provides funding ranging from de 500 a 1.200 dólares to help cover the costs of these creative endeavors. Because this program is a project-based grant for individual artists rather than a traditional academic scholarship, it does not require the FAFSA or state financial aid applications. Instead, candidates must submit their proposals directly through the provider's dedicated online application platform. For current dates and submission timelines, applicants should see the official page for current dates.
