Support For Zelda

Lauren Greenhall is a proud 2021 Jewish Film Institute resident and got to workshop Zelda alongside a cohort of documentary filmmakers and mentors such as Marcia Jarmel, Judith Helfand, and Academy Award winner Jay Rosenblatt.

Lauren Greenhall was awarded a 2024 New York State Council of the Arts Grant by the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the Office of the Governor and the New York State Legislature for Zelda. As stated by NYSCA Chair Katherine Nicholls, “Spanning the entire breadth of the arts and culture sector – from world-renowned performers to after-school programs, from long established museums to community arts collectives – these organizations and artists together are a powerful driver of health, tourism, economy and education for our residents and visitors. On behalf of Council and staff, congratulations to Lauren Greenhall and thank you for your perseverance, your creativity and your tireless service to New York State.”

Zelda is fiscally sponsored by the New York Foundation of the Arts with additional support from the Ravenal Foundation.
