Open Session: Grants and Sponsorships for Creatives
About this Event
On Thursday, August 20th, join Love Now Media at the Love Lab (932 Market Street) for an open session where poets, filmmakers, journalists, musicians, designers, and creative entrepreneurs learn to fund the work they were made to do. From 2:00 to 5:00 PM, we're throwing open two doors to the same money: grants and sponsorships. You'll discover how funders think, what sponsors actually pay for, and how to talk about your art in the language of both. Then our AI-powered grant platform goes to work for you, building a personalized list of Philadelphia and national funding opportunities matched to your practice, with amounts, deadlines, and links you take home that day.
This is a working session with real talk, real tools, and real practice, including a behind-the-scenes look at actual sponsorship asks and an ask clinic where you'll pitch your work out loud before you leave. Come with one project in mind and an afternoon to spend on your own abundance. Leave with your custom grant list, a framework for your first sponsorship tiers, and a new way of seeing what your work is worth.
No grant writing experience needed.
Just bring your practice, your questions, and your love for what you make. We'll bring the rest.
