About the magazine

Founded in 2012, the Southern Vision Alliance (SVA) is a movement-support organization that channels resources to grassroots groups across the U.S. South, with a particular focus on queer and trans liberation, racial justice, and youth organizing. Its Queer Mobilization Fund (QMF) provides grants to projects that build power in LGBTQ+ communities, often prioritizing intersectional and regionally rooted work. SVA operates as a fiscal sponsor and regrantor, aiming to shift philanthropic resources to the South while maintaining a low-bureaucracy, high-trust approach.

Submitting your work

Reading periodVaries

Artists and cultural workers seeking support should first review SVA's current funding priorities, which center on queer and trans liberation, racial justice, and youth-led organizing in the South. The Queer Mobilization Fund typically opens an annual grant cycle with clear guidelines and deadlines. Approach with a project that demonstrates genuine community partnership and a clear theory of change; proposals that are led by and for impacted communities are prioritized. Avoid generic arts proposals that lack a direct organizing or movement-building component. For specific questions, contact SVA staff well in advance of deadlines.
