Hosted by Triangle ArtWorks
Are you interested in getting a grant to support an aspect of your art practice? In this two-part clinic, you will get an introduction to grant writing basics for artists, and then take a deeper dive workshopping your own grant components. Whether you have a specific grant in mind or you want to build out your skills, this program will help you improve your ability to communicate about your work to grant committees.
In the first session you’ll review various artist grant types and functions, including best practices, grant components, and sources of support. There will be homework between the sessions based on your specific needs. The second session will consist of a deeper dive into specific grant proposals based on participant needs with a focus on writing project narratives, justifications, and putting together a grant budget. You will also have the opportunity for 1:1 coaching from the presenter for your specific grant package.
This professional development opportunity is ideal for creatives of all kinds who want to do more than just learning the basics of grant writing. The hands-on experience in the homework and second session where we “work” and “workshop” our grant narratives and/or justifications will mean that you leave the program with a much stronger understanding of what your grant packages can look like. As part of this professional development opportunity, participants will also have the option of 1:1 coaching for grant reviewing, editing, and general feedback. This clinic is an investment in your artistic practice and the homework is an integral part of the experience.
This course meets on Zoom. There are TWO meeting dates: Feb 10 and 24, 6-8p Mondays
