About this Event

Arts South Australia is excited to partner with Nexus Arts who are delivering a free Arts Grant Writing Workshop for First Nations Artists and Arts Workers. Up to 30 spots are available for participation who have an interest to learn about the arts and cultural grant writing landscape.

The workshop will run over two half days at Nexus Arts with the aim of encouraging participants to get involved in the arts funding environment and will equip them with the skills to engage with the system.

Join Nexus Arts CEO & Artistic Director, Emily Tulloch as she presents the workshop which will cover the following topics.

• Introduction to arts funding in Australia

• Identifying a ‘project’ for your application

• Constructing an argument

• What assessors are looking for

• What makes for compelling support material

• Budget preparation

• How to ask for help

• Acquittals

• Timelines

• How to auspice

• Adapting to conditions or unexpected circumstances.

The workshop will also comprise:

• a Q&A panel of invited guests to discuss experiences with funding applications and grant successes

• a discussion about Arts South Australia’s ATSI dedicated grants (Professional Development and Project rounds) including how they are assessed, what the funds can and cannot be used for, how to acquit, what’s a variation agreement and how to secure one

• printed handout with key tips and resources, including a 2023-2024 funding programs calendar will be provided to participants.

• funding opportunities elsewhere, differences and comparisons of what is available will be discussed.

Importantly, as an outcome of workshop participation, all those attending will be personally connected to Nexus, and will be invited to work one-on-one with Nexus Arts staff as part of their ongoing Write Up funding application support program, which is also funded by Arts South Australia.
