The Santa Fe Film Institute(SFFI) has been approved by the National Endowment for the Arts(NEA) for a grant to support the 14th Annual Santa Fe Independent Film Festival(SFiFF), which will take place October 19th–23rd, 2022.

This is the third consecutive year that NEA has recognized SFFI's creative and cultural impact with a grant award. “The National Endowment for the Arts is proud to support arts projects like this one from Santa Fe Film Institute that help support the community’s creative economy,” said NEA Acting Chair Ann Eilers. “Santa Fe Film Institute in Santa Fe is among the arts organizations nationwide that are using the arts as a source of strength, a path to well-being, and providing access and opportunity for people to connect and find joy through the arts.”
“It is meaningful for both local filmmakers and film artists worldwide for Santa Fe Film Institute to receive this support,” said SFiFF Executive Director Liesette Paisner Bailey. “The fantastic projects, and world-class screenings that make up SFiFF’s public programming, reflect the organization’s commitment to the arts and artists.”
