Grant Writing with Liz Barron - Part 1: Proposals

Presented in partnership with Creative Manitoba.

There will be important discussions about what to do and what not to do and how to select the best possible support materials. Get yourself organized and apply for funding to support your practice! Attend one or both sessions and learn from an experienced grant writer.
