Due to popular demand, we have decided to offer another grant writing workshop in October!
Join Akin and the Ontario Arts Council to learn more about how to apply for grants from the people that give them. Please note: this workshop will focus on grants offered by the OAC but much of the information provided can easily be applied to grants from other organizations.
Writing grants is a significant part of many artist's careers - so let's learn how to do it properly! This interactive workshop will explore the process of planning, writing and submitting grant proposals to different governing bodies. As a major funder themselves, the Ontario Arts Council provides direction and advice on the grant writing process and the various the dos and don'ts of everything from creating your budget to organizing your support material and work plan. Following this, there will be an extensive Q&A period.
