DATE: Wednesday, November 4th
TIME: 6:00-7:00 PM
LOCATION: Virtual (Zoom)
Every great idea needs fuel to grow. For many artists, changemakers, and nonprofit leaders, that fuel comes in the form of grants — but the process of applying can often feel overwhelming, intimidating, or out of reach. The Art of Winning Grants was created to change that.
Join Flushing Town Hall and Yura Sapi for a free hour long virtual workshop where participants will learn how to overcome barriers like self-doubt when it comes to writing compelling applications. Participants are invited to bring a drafted response from their grant application to receive feedback from peers and workshop during the session.
