TCFF was one of 86 recipients from a pool of over 350 applicants to receive a grant for the MNmicro Film Festival celebrating Minnesota’s cultural heritage. The Cultural Heritage awards support a wide range of activities throughout the entire State of Minnesota to preserve and honor the state’s cultural heritage by providing education and student outreach on cultural diversity, supporting the development of culturally diverse humanities programming, and empowering communities in building identity and culture. This work is funded in part by the Minnesota Humanities Center (MHC) with money from the Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund that was created with the vote of the people of Minnesota on November 4, 2008.
