Are you having trouble with finding the right words when you are applying for working grants? Which works do you show? Should you be writing in art-speak? And what is “artistic plans”?
In this workshop we will run through some basic tips on how to write the big working grant application. How to prepare the application, how to navigate within the forms, how to organise the visual material, and how to describe your artistic work in a way that increases the chance of success. We will have time for questions and discussions, and are aiming for a relevant workshop fitting for both beginners and experienced artists.
