How are you telling your story? In this workshop, we'll discuss how to succinctly and authentically write narratives pitching your project to different grantors, as well as how to avoid common grant writing pitfalls. The bulk of this workshop will take the form of generative writing prompts and Q&A, so come prepared with a project in mind!
