AJFF Receives $50k Grant
AJFF, now operating as a year-round cinematic arts organization and anchored at the new Sandy Springs Performing Arts Center, has been awarded a $50,000 grant.
The Atlanta Jewish Film Festival reported it is having a stellar year. In addition to its decision to operate as a year-round cinematic arts organization, AJFF is anchored at the new Sandy Springs Performing Arts Center to accommodate larger audiences. And now, AJFF is being awarded $50,000 from Community Foundation for Greater Atlanta.
The year-long grant will support AJFF’s general operating expenses. The Metropolitan Atlanta Arts Fund is designed to provide unrestricted funding to support and maintain the mission of nonprofits in 23 counties of Greater Atlanta.
Kenny Blank, AJFF executive director, said in a press release, “A milestone in the history of AJFF, this financial support represents an important endorsement of our mission, artistic vitality, and stature among Atlanta’s arts nonprofits.”
AJFF returns to screens for the annual festival Feb. 6, 2019. International films, events and lectures from AJFF guests bring together people from all walks of life through storytelling and the magic of film.
