About this Event
Explore how grant proposals, sponsorship decks, and fiscal partnerships can help fund a creative project or business.
A strong idea needs a funding approach that fits the work. Grants and sponsorships ask for different kinds of information, and a fiscal agent may be useful for some projects. Understanding those options can help you spend your time pursuing the right opportunities.
In this Creative Futures session, Geraud Blanks will discuss how to shape a compelling funding request, present a project's value to potential partners, and decide which funding path makes sense for your goals.
