How To Apply
Applications are accepted online. Click the here to apply.
The deadline for proposals is Sunday, September 20 at 11:59 PM Pacific Daylight Time.
Tips For Your Proposal
Workshops should be hands-on and interactive, not simply presentations. Class sizes are capped so that you have the opportunity to talk with students, take questions, etc.
Activities should be geared toward projects that students can accomplish in their homes without the use of specialized equipment.
Include a detailed list of supplies/ingredients in your proposal, as well as a list of tools that students will probably already own (e.g. scissors, hobby knives, utensils, ranges/ovens/microwaves, etc.). The budget for supplies and ingredients is $15-20 per student. The Arts Council will work with you to put together a box of supplies and ingredients that students may order.
