WHEN IS THE DEADLINE FOR APPLICATIONS?
In the Jerome Foundation's general program of assistance to nonprofit
organizations, one may apply at any time. There are no deadlines. The Foundation
does not fund retroactively, so proposals should take that into account. The
Travel & Study Grant program is limited to residents of Minnesota. There is one
deadline per year, usually in the late winter. You may place your name on a
mailing list to receive program information by notifying the Jerome Foundation
office.
There is no deadline for application to the New York City Film and Video

months for review of a proposal. The Minnesota Film and Video program has been
operating on a one deadline per year basis, usually early in the calendar year.
