Simplifying Grants Fundraising e-course
We’ve heard your pleas! Being an independent artist, arts administrator, or both doesn’t give you a ton of free time in your schedule. While working with you in-person is so important to us, we want to be sure our resources can reach you no matter where you are and what your schedule.
To that end, we’re thrilled to share the first in our online course series, Simplifying Grants Fundraising in the Arts!
For just $29.99, this course will teach you:
- How to research the RIGHT grants for your work;
- How to cultivate funder relationships;
- How to organize your grants program in order to make the most of your limited time; and
- How to build a year-round grants fundraising program.
Modules are just 5 to 15 minutes long and include some resources to help you get organized. The best part? This is just the beginning! We hope you’ll give us feedback as you go, allowing us to improve these to better suit your needs in the coming years.
Happy fundraising!
