Hello
Are you looking to
apply for an art grant?
If so, this course is for you.
In 17 chapters,
we'll cover everything
you need to know on
how to build successful
applications for grants.
I'll show you: How to write a strong
project proposal?
Which key questions
your proposal should answer?
How to choose the right grants
and increase your chances?
How the jury review process works?
How the jury selects the projects?
How to draft a clear budget plan
and build a project timeline?
How to visually present your project?
And how to make the layout
of your application stand out?
In order to build
the most comprehensive course possible,
we've spoken to many jury members,
funders, artists, writers, and curators.
Based on our findings
from these discussions,
we developed this online course,
which is organized as
a step-by-step guide.
I'm Jordie Oetken,
an artist based in Los Angeles.
Throughout my career,
I've held residencies
at the Skowhegan School
of Painting and Sculpture,
MacDowell, the Lighthouse Works,
Vermont Studio Center,
and the Yale Norfolk School of Art.
My time with these residencies
was supported by various
grants and fellowships,
as have been many of my other projects.
I'll take you through this course,
which will give you all the tools
you need
to build strong applications for grants.
