Help Keep GRFFF Free
For three years running, the Grand Rapids Feminist Film Festival (GRFFF) has been a staple in the Grand Rapids community, bringing in films made by women, non-binary folks, and marginalized groups, and educating our community for free with top-notch panels and speakers. We are an inclusive and accessible safe space for the social justice community across Michigan.
But we’re growing. And growth means that things get more expensive.
We want to keep GRFFF free because we believe in accessibility, no matter your financial standing. So, we need your help.
We’ve never done crowd funding before. Why now?
We’re making big leaps and bounds forward. With a new venue, The UICA , higher visibility films, and some amazing potential speaker opportunities, we need an extra boost to make GRFFF 2017 all it can be.
We have the potential to bring in a few keynote speakers this year, but that means they incur travel costs. Since these speakers are non-profit workers, artists, and/or activists, they deserve to be paid.
