Workshops
We have several workshops available with a focus on different
grant programs. We offer The Writing a Good Grant (WAGG) workshops
that specifically focus on all the funding opportunities we
offer: Minigrants, MCACA Grants, Operating Grants and a general
grant writing session for those interested in the more global
approach.

We are currently working in partnership with the Michigan
Association of Cultural Arts Agencies (MACAA) to produce the
MasterMind Series of workshops. In response tot eh rising
needs and expectations of arts and cultural leaders, MACAA,
the Arts Council of Greater Grand Rapids, the Wayne County
Council for Arts, History and Humanities and the Crooked Tree
Arts Council have designed this new series which helps leaders
who want and need a higher caliber of training. Highly skilled
professionals have been selected to open their minds and share
their expertise.

Working smART
These quarterly meetings are designed as forums for our members
to come together to plan the workshops and speaker forums
that will help them improve their administrative and fund
raising capacities. This service is available for members
only. To learn more, please call the Arts Council office at:
616-459-2787.

One-on-One Mentoring
Every member of the Arts Council has the opportunity to be
helped on a one-to-one basis. This is a service that many
of our members do not realize is a very valuable part of their
membership. Whether you need help with a new program, writing
your first corporate proposal, or you need to make a connection
with other professionals, help is just a phone call away.
We have assisted members with everything from creating their
first budget to mapping out their strategic planning process.
For more information regarding our One-on-one services email
our executive director, Iliana
Ordaz-Jeffries. This service is available for members
only.
