Utilizing neon in his work, McKnight creates text-based sculptures using poetry and often common phrases. He fabricates and assembles the glass in his Olneyville studio, Night Light Neon.  (MUSIC FADES) is a continuation of my ’subtitle’ series, which uses common type in television for the deaf or hard of hearing to convey what’s being said or done on screen. (MUSIC FADES) shows a shift in tone audibly, which can signify a shift in tone emotionally, visually, etc.  This project is specific to our regional public landscape in Providence and the state of Rhode Island because it is a commentary on the ever-changing and sudden closures of the music and arts scenes. I wanted to create a simple message that channels a growing issue and frustration within the artistic community in a city that boasts being the ‘Creative Capitol’, but continues to allow the displacement of many creatives trying to find a place to call home over and over again to be heard and seen. (MUSIC FADES) gives a subtle nod to this, but it also hopes to breathe a message of new growth and hope to something new. This window was made possible in part through funding from the Providence Department of Art Culture and Tourism Awarded Artists & Projects The grants support new and experimental work by local artists with visions for projects that might otherwise fall outside of traditional arts funding opportunities. Collaboration is at the heart of Project Grant artists’ work–with fellow artists, local communities, or sites. The cohort’s proposed projects engage publications, photography, printmaking, installation, and beyond. They will explore themes including world-building, healthcare, intergenerational storytelling, and mutual aid.

In November, LEF opened up our Letter of Inquiry (LOI) submission forms for feature-length (40+ minute) nonfiction projects in Production and Post-production to award grants of $15,000 and $25,000, respectively. To be eligible for Post-production funding, the project must have already been supported by LEF at a previous stage. The deadline to apply for either Production or Post-production funding is Friday, January 17 at 11:59pm ET. You can learn more about how to apply here. HARVARD FILM STUDY CENTER - LEF FELLOWSHIP Boston-area directors (based within 75 miles driving distance, including Providence and much of Rhode Island) who are not affiliated with Harvard are also encouraged to apply to the Harvard FSC-LEF Fellowship with a short or long-form nonfiction project that will be in production or post-production for the 2025–26 academic year. This opportunity, which is separate from the Moving Image Fund, includes a $15,000 grant, access to a pool of production and post-production equipment, and the ability to participate in the Harvard FSC community through work-in-progress screenings, workshops, and other activities.
