We are thrilled to announce that MARMIA has been selected to be a part of the Mellon Foundation NFF three-year initiative, Investing in Resilience. This cohort includes Appalshop, Center for Asian American Media (CAAM), ENTRE Film Center & Regional Archive, Frameline, Media Burn Archive, Invisible Histories, Sacred Defense Fund, Third World Newsreel, and Warrior Women Project.
NFF will work with us over the next three years to build organizational capacity. With this support, MARMIA will be able to continue and improve upon our mission to preserve and provide access to audiovisual materials that tell the story and experiences of Mid-Atlantic communities that have been historically excluded in mainstream historical records and media.
