THE BASIC BRILLIANCE OF HOW TO WRITE, MANAGE AND MAINTAIN FUNDING
Funding and grants are often held up as the holy grail of a successful arts career, but there is no such thing as ‘free’ money. Accessing government and philanthropic funding requires a great deal of work, from preparation to writing applications to delivery and successful acquittal. Funding also means ongoing research and groundwork to be ready for any applications, as well as maintaining the resolve to keep trying after an unsuccessful attempt.
In this down-to-earth workshop, participants will learn about:
- The different kinds of funding available;
- Creating a Grant Folder (and being ready for opportunities);
- Researching Funding and Considering Applications;
- Writing the Proposal – and avoiding the Common Errors;
- Creating a Grant Calendar;
- The Acquittal Process – and how to Recover from Setbacks;
- Five Ways to FAIL at Grants.
The topics are covered with fun, flair and pictures in a relaxed and informal environment. Participants are encouraged to ask questions, share their stories and get to know each other!
The NSW Regional Arts Fund grants will also be discussed in detail, with reps from Regional Arts NSW in attendance. Find out more:

- Lifetime access to a dedicated Funding Dropbox folder full of additional resources and help;
