INCEPTION TO PROJECTION NEEDS YOUR SUPPORT!

This has been a challenging year for fundraising, and without financial support, our programs will go on pause. We urgently need your support to keep our Inception to Projection Filmmaking Program thriving. Thanks to a generous matching contribution from Gail Pratt Frasier, your donation can double its impact and help us reach our $30,000 goal in April. Your contribution will breathe life into original stories, foster community, and create job opportunities.

Since opening our Digital Arts Studio in Hot Springs three years ago, we've completed over 90 short films and launched numerous careers. Inception to Projection offers career development and personal storytelling opportunities, exemplified by the Ready for Action! course, which trained 40 participants and secured jobs for them across Arkansas.

As the only program of its kind in the state, we provide scholarships to ensure accessibility. We offer various sponsorship levels, detailed below, each with unique perks like film credits, festival passes, and more.
