The Alexia Foundation is now accepting applications for The Alexia grants
for professional and student photographers. The Alexia offers grants to
photographers to give them the
financial ability to produce substantial stories that drive change
in the effort to make the world a better place.
The deadlines are as follows:
The Alexia
– Professional – Tuesday, Jan. 31 at 5 p.m. Eastern U.S. Time.
The Alexia
– Student – Tuesday, Feb. 14 at 5 p.m. Eastern U.S. Time.
The professional winner of The Alexia will receive $20,000 to assist in the
production of the proposed project.
The first place student winner of The Alexia will receive a $1000 cash grant to assist
in the production of his or her proposed project. The
winner will also receive tuition
for one semester at Syracuse University’s S.I. Newhouse School of Public
Communications. This scholarship does not need to be used
as part of a degree seeking sequence. We think of it as an opportunity to
uniquely expand one’s story telling capabilities. Additionally, $500 will
be awarded to the winning student's academic department.
Up to four (4)
Award of Excellence Winners will be named, at the judges’
discretion. Each will receive a
$500 cash grant to help produce the proposed project.
Award of Excellence winners will also receive $1500 that may be applied
toward tuition at Syracuse University or they may choose to attend one of
the following workshops: a
MediaStorm one-day workshop, a Momenta
Photo Workshop or a Kalish
Workshop, which is provided by The Gilka Grant.
