Two-Day Workshop - Fundraising for (Digital) Creators | August 29-30

Are you an artist seeking funding for creating a new artwork or realizing an artistic project? Do you want to learn how to convince funds of your idea with a strong plan?

During this two-day workshop, you will gain insight into the funding jungle, learn how to distinguish and position yourself as a creator, and get hands-on guidance with your artist statement, draft design, and budget.

To get the most out of these sessions, you will receive a briefing with homework before the workshops. After these sessions, you will have a first draft of your plan and take practical hand-outs with you for future projects. We hope to see you there!

For whom

(Digital) creators with a concrete plan for artistic research and/or the realization of new work.
