ZOOM OR PHONE MEETINGS

Applicants are also welcome to schedule one-on-one meetings (via Zoom or over the phone) with Rob Ndondo-Lay about their application before completing it online. To schedule a meeting please call 651-644-1912 or email Rndondolay@FilmNorth.org. Please do not wait until the last minute, as there might not be enough time to help everyone at that point.

ARTIST STATEMENT HELP

You can get one-on-one assistance by contacting Springboard for the Arts to sign up for a meeting with one of their Artist Career Consultants, who can guide and give feedback on crafting your artist statement and/or your whole application. You can see the full Artist Career Consultant Roster on Springboard’s website. If you have questions, email Wone Vang at Wone@springboardforthearts.org. Do not wait until the last moment to contact Springboard, as the process takes a little time.
