Funding Your Artistic Work

Stephen Sondheim famously said, "Art isn't easy. Even when you're hot. Advancing art is easy. Financing it is not." Artist/entrepreneurs in today's marketplace need to rethink their expectations about project fundraising. Participants will increase their knowledge about grants and learn the importance of exploring a variety of fundraising tools in order to increase their unearned income and produce more art.

In this workshop we will:

1. Help you broaden your perspective on project fundraising options for individual artists.

2. Consider project fundraising basics such as developing your database, creating budgets and determining where to best focus your efforts.

3. Discuss the lay of the land and grant strategies for individual artists.

4. Introduce new fundraising ideas, beyond grants, that can be incorporated into project fundraising plans.
