“Mosaic” Grant Award from MRAC

ByInverted Arts

Inverted Arts has just been awarded an Arts Activities grant of $10,000 from the Metropolitan Regional Arts Council for “Mosaic;” a 10-12 minute documentary film exploring the nature of diversity through the eyes of three disadvantaged male youth in collaboration with three professional film-makers. Youth participants will take turns telling each others story through lens of a camera; each experiencing a day in the life of the other. Look for the film in spring 2016!

This activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through a grant from the Metropolitan Regional Arts Council, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund.”
