Upcoming Artist Trust Workshops
“How to Build a Strong Grant Application”
Free workshops for Artists Working in All Disciplines
Heather Joy Helbach-Olds, Artist Trust's Director of Programs, will present information about how to successfully apply for grants, with tips on preparing a strong grant application, including work sample "do's and don't's," artist résumés and project proposals. Designed for artists working in all disciplines, information about panel and selection processes is also shared. Artist Trust's Grants for Artist Projects (GAP) application is used as a guide. You'll also learn how to get informed about the array of grant possibilities available to Washington State artists, and much more. Expect detailed information on how to best prepare all the materials necessary for a professional grant application.
The workshops are free but pre-registration is required. Please contact Heather Joy (206/467-8734 x10; 866/218-7878 x10; heatherjoy@artisttrust.org) to register, unless otherwise noted.
