The goal of applying for, and receiving, grants and other kinds of funding, is freedom. Freedom to make the work that you want to make. In this workshop, you will learn the fundamental basics of writing in order to find that freedom. You will look at examples of successful applications, learn how writing can be a form of clarity, and some successful tactics and strategies you can use in your own applications.

​

This workshop is suitable for anyone who has a desire to make a long-term project; who have at least one body of work that is either complete or close to being complete.
