Applying for Arts Council England funding
Online Workshop
Led by Nicola Streeten
Tuesday 18 February 2025, 6.30-8.30pm
Do you have a brilliant idea that you think should be funded by Arts Council England, but feel overwhelmed by the application form and process?
This practical online workshop is for you! Bring your laptop or ipad, and/or paper and something to write with. Dr Nicola Streeten will guide you through a series of simple and entertaining exercises to refine your approach and plan. This will be the basis for any successful funding application. Nicola will use the Arts Council England form and take you through it, distinguishing between the Developing Your Creative Practice and the project Grant. She will show you how to construct example budgets and timelines that you can then use as templates for your own project. The workshop will allow time for your questions and by the end you will have developed a confidence in your path to realising your idea.
