Grant Writing Essentials:  Two-Part Mini Series

$35 for the two-part series

To build credibility, artists need peer and public recognition, as well as the capital to produce, promote and distribute their work. Grants can provide both, but are notoriously hard to get. This workshop mini-series focuses on essential grant writing techniques, including crafting a persuasive “pitch”, budgeting, timelines and other handy tips to help you turn out grant applications that are as strong and outstanding as your work.

Part 1: The Pitch

Wednesday, February 15: 6:30 PM – 8:30 PM

Starting with an essential grant writing checklist, and focusing on crafting an informative, context-rich and compelling pitch that “sells” you and your work with clarity and persuasion, this workshop will make you excited to write your next grant application.

Part 2: Budgets and Timelines

Wednesday, February 22: 6:30 PM – 8:30 PM

Focusing on the feasibility components of a grant application – cohesive, well thought out budgets and timelines that adequately reflect the project from a time and money perspective, this session will help you develop a set of best practices for all future grant applications.
