About the event

This workshop is for anyone working in the creative industries, whether you're a producer, musician, artist, actor, writer, etc., who is interested in developing their projects but does not have experience of doing so.

You will learn about different sources of funding, ways of finding funding for a project, and the elementary skills required for writing proposals. No prior knowledge is required. It will be useful if you can come along with a project or idea in mind, but this isn't essential.

 

How to attend

Tickets are discounted to £10 for MU members, or £25 full price for non-union members.

Please note that this course will be held in English.
