The Mayor’s Office of Media and Entertainment (MOME) and New York Foundation for the Arts (NYFA) have announced that applications are open for the third round of grants as part of the NYC Women’s Fund for Media, Music and Theatre. Qualified applicants can apply for finishing grants through November 1, 2021. The $5.5 million grant program, launched in 2018, has awarded $3.5 million to 157 film, theatre, and music projects to date, with NYFA acting as the grant administrator.

The NYC Women’s Fund is a signature initiative launched to address the underrepresentation of all who identify as women in the entertainment industries. The fund has provided opportunity for females and female-identified creatives, employed over 300 artists to date, and served as a model for local government’s promotion of creative projects by, for, or about women.
