Funding Fit is a two part workshop, run by artist & curator Simon Poulter, looking at how to submit a successful funding application. Simon’s last Funding Fit sessions for CAMP resulted in FOUR successful funding bids by CAMP members.
Please note there are two dates for this workshop and you must commit to both sessions (we can only show the first date on the booking system)
Session 1: Devising the project – Tuesday 6 July, 6pm – 8pm
In this session we talk about how to devise the project from ground up. We’ll draw up a one pager describing the project, then we’ll assess the goals of the funding programmes we are targeting. This session goes into detail on how to turn a project into a fundable proposition. We will discuss scoping the project, first draft budget and creating partnerships. This session incorporates a Q&A.
Session 2: Preparing a budget and meeting compliance requirements – Monday 12 July, 6pm-8pm
This session concentrates on writing a budget for your project. Payments to yourself, your collaborators, insurance for public facing works, health and safety and evaluation will all be addressed. We will also look at why bids fail and the importance of ‘follow up’ contact when funding is not awarded. We will also look at finer details of filling out the form on Grantium and a few tricks to make the process easier! This session incorporates a Q&A.
ACCESS INFORMATION
This workshop will take place on Zoom, using video & audio, and you will be asked by the workshop leader to participant either by voice or text chat.
