Arts Council Project Grants: easier, faster, more successful
Make your project happen by writing your next grant with us in July. This class focuses on Arts Council England Project Grants – what they’re looking for, our top secret tips and tricks, and how to write killer applications that will dramatically improve your success rate. (FYI – our IRL spaces are all SOLD OUT – but online-only tickets are still available!)
We will cover:
- The fundamentals of the (new) ACE structure
- Key language they’re really looking for
- Project budgeting for success
- Where to expand on your ideas – and where to cut back
What you get
- Practical learning: a 2-hour class and seminar, plus a follow-up group coaching session later in the month and takeaway resources – designed to apply learning to your actual projects.
- Personalised support: Get un-stuck with us with an optional one-to-one coaching session.
- Networking & social time: We facilitate proper (and properly fun) networking, plus you get to join our online community of badass creatives, forever.
Who is it for?
- The next wave of culture leaders who want to work more dynamically
- Practitioners who want to regain control over their projects, finances, and career
- Anyone who wants work smarter, stress less, and co-create a better sector
Where is it?
We hold courses in-person in East London, but if you’re not in the big smoke (or just super busy), it’s easy to join live online or watch back any sessions you missed.
Why us?
- Sprints are run by Social Convention founders Nat and Cim
- We bring together everything we’ve learned during our combined 50-odd years in this industry, 3 years of research and 2 x master’s degrees in this stuff
- Together, we’ve raised almost £7 million from public funds in the last 10 years
- We’ve both been creative practitioners, freelancers, arts execs, and consultants…so we get it!
