Program areas at Artists for Change

Maya - We fundraised for and filmed our second narrative feature. The film was created to raise awareness on the fast growing global problem of child trafficking. Maya also raises awareness on key social issues such as the negative effect of domestic violence in the home, dangers of alcoholism, and child abuse. When a teenager, seeking escape from her alcoholic mother's abusive boyfriend, is lured into a trafficking scheme, she must realize the difference between love and manipulation to return to those who truly care. The film is aimed at a teenager and family audience. The film was cast in early 2022 and began filming at the end of April. We finished filming and focused on post-production for the second half of the year.
Angie:Lost Girls - we focused on marketing the previously released feature. It premiered on the Lifetime channel in 2022, reaching millions across the United States
Artists for Change was a fiscal sponsor for the film production of Ghost Divers (2021). The film hopes to inform and inspire audiences to promote ocean conservation, shark preservation, and expose human exploitation.
