NAC Summer Grant Writing Workshops

The Nebraska Arts Council (NAC) invites all interested grant applicants to attend a NAC Grant Writing 101 workshop to be held the summer of 2011. These workshops, conducted by NAC staff members, will provide specifics on writing competitive applications for NAC funding: What makes for a successful NAC application? What do panelists look for when reviewing an application? How can the NAC help? The workshops will benefit both experienced grant writers and first-time NAC grant applicants. While the workshops are designed for representatives of applicant organizations, individual artists are welcome to attend. The sessions are free of charge, will last approximately 1.5 hours, and will include time for questions and answers. Pre-registration is recommended, but not required.
