Join us as we learn to navigate through the confusing world of grant-writing!
The workshop will be led by Amber Berson, our Programming Coordinator - a professional grant writer with over a decade of experience helping emerging artists get funded. This is an introductory information session, where Berson will be guiding us through the funding opportunities available via the various councils and funding bodies.
*Please note that the grants that will be discussed during the workshop are unfortunately only available to folks with Canadian citizenship. We welcome everyone to attend the workshop however, as the skills covered can be transferred to other funding sources and models.
