In this lecture-based course, participants will learn the fundamentals of grant writing specifically for independent filmmakers and media artists in Canada, and write a proposal in real-time during class. Participants will have the opportunity to workshop answers, timelines, and ideas with peers.

Led by Monica Gate, attendees will explore how to properly research and prepare for grants, write strong and compelling project proposals, create a clear and accurate budget, as well as appropriate supporting material.

Over the four weeks, we will learn how to write a Stream 1, 2, and 3 Individuals and Collective grant with for the Edmonton Arts Council. AFA and CCA grants will also be discussed, providing participants with experienced perspectives and advice. By the end of this course, participants will have a first draft of their grant proposal.

Participants are encouraged to have a grant-ready project upon entry to this course.
