What would people be most surprised to learn about the NEH and/or its founders?
This small government agency is accessible and responsive to ideas from all filmmakers. We are a user-friendly funder. A big part of our work centers on education and feedback. We offer suggestions at the preliminary stage and try to anticipate questions that might come up in the review process. After the decisions are made, producers can ask for and receive the panelists’ comments on their projects.
