A special workshop for Scottish neurodivergent artists, with Phyllis Martin of Truffle Pig.

What are the building blocks of a good grant application and what do the questions really mean?

This is a practical session looking at the application questions for Hugo Burge Foundation (a short form) and Creative Scotland (a total beast), how to apply for an Access Bursary from either organisation to get help writing your bid and how to identify your most fundable idea. All attenders get a question-by-question guide to the Creative Scotland Open Fund form.

Open to all ND artists in Scotland - you don't need to be a Neuk Member!

Please note that this workshop is specific to Creative Scotland's Open Fund, so it is not suitable for artists outwith Scotland.

Access

There will be a short break one hour into the workshop, and automatic closed captions are available. If you have any other access needs we can support, please tell us when booking.
