Babycastles Academy is the education arm of Babycastles. Join us on Sunday afternoons at 3pm for workshops and jam sessions. Learn new skills. Make new friends.
This workshop is a broad and beginner-friendly introduction to writing grant proposals, exhibition proposals, artist-in-residency applications and other forms of professional proposals. In this introduction, we’ll look at a few applications, sources for finding opportunities, and tips on language and style. The goal is to demystify the grant-writing process and demonstrate a basic typical workflow to make writing grants and proposals approachable and easier to do.
The talk will be oriented to artists, game-makers and other creative practitioners. Join in the chat to ask specific questions, or feel free to join the #babycastles-academy channel on our public Discord server to ask questions in advance.
Teacher: Lee Tusman, a co-organizer at Babycastles
