MINNESOTA CULTURAL HERITAGE grants - TRAINING OPPORTUNITIES
Grant Writing Workshops Offered Statewide
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW FOR PREPARATION, WRITING, AND SUBMISSION OF A GRANT APPLICATION
Grants staff will spend the first 45-60 minutes explaining the new Cultural Heritage Grants program and answering general questions. After that, staff will be available to sit down with participants to talk one-on-one about their project ideas and perhaps even begin drafting grant proposals. Participants should bring their project ideas, specifications, and, ideally, a flash drive to take an electronic copy of their draft home with them. Then the participants could update the proposal with additional details or required information before either uploading to the website or printing and mailing it.
