*Monday 17 October 2011: *Creative England’s Film Culture Fund opens for
applications today, with a total of £490,000 delegated Lottery funds from
the BFI to distribute in the first round.

 The Film Culture Fund aims to boost access for audiences to a wide range of
film content in the English regions outside of London, to enrich audiences’
experience through education opportunities, and to bring the unique
resources of regional screen heritage into wider film provision.

It is looking to support the provision and interpretation of both
specialised and mainstream film in England, by investing in:

   - audience development within the film exhibition sector
   - film education activities which are linked to and support film
   exhibition infrastructure (e.g. cinemas, film festivals, film societies and
   other platforms)
   - the acquisition, preservation and conservation of and access to
   regional screen heritage.

 Applications are now invited from cinemas, film archives, film festivals,
mobile cinemas, film societies and other eligible organisations working in
the English regions outside of London. Awards will range from £2,000 -
£50,000 depending on the project. Funded activity can include programming,
education, reaching under-served audiences and regional screen heritage.

 *Creative England’s Head of Film Culture Jay Arnold*, said: “I’m very
pleased to open Creative England’s first funding scheme. We’re looking for
strong project ideas that we can get behind to help nurture film culture in
all its variety, to the benefit of local audiences around the country, and
we’re interested in hearing from organisations from all parts of the English
regions.”

 *Eddie Berg, the BFI’s Director of Partnerships*, said: “Creative England
will be crucial delivery partners for the BFI’s Forward Plan and we welcome
this clear commitment of support for the exhibition, archive and film
education sectors, whose work is so important to audiences across England.”


 The deadline for applications is midday on 28 November 2011.
