travel expenses?

Hiya,
Has anyone found a grant or award for travel / lodging expenses to film festivals? My husband and I won the Michael Brinkman Fellowship to attend the Jackson Hole Wildlife Film Festival, but travel (or lodging) is not included.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

I'm not sure why someone would give you a grant for this, unless it were part of a larger budget to produce a film for some worthy cause? Do you treat your video work like a business in terms of taxes? I imagine you could deduct any business related travel expenses (see your accountant). Of course you actually have to *make* money to be able to take deductions :-)
