Grant Writing Workshop in Los Angeles

Grant Writing Workshop in Los Angeles, June 16 with VII photographer Donald Weber.

Learn how to obtain the funding you need to complete the projects you want. For more information and to sign up, visit www.donaldweber.tumblr.com

Photography projects require money. Many photographers produce work at their own financial cost. There are, however, plenty of funding sources available from different organizations. These organizations are ready to support image makers providing funding for research, creation, production, travel and living expenses. What’s the catch? Mostly very little to none.

There is a definitive technique to grant writing, learn this and strengthen your chances of reaching the top of the pile.

Donald Weber, an award winning photographer and a member of the VII Photo Agency, will show you how. He has been a successful recipient of many grants including a Guggenheim Fellowship, The Lange-Taylor Prize, The Duke & Duchess of York Prize, the Magnum Foundation’s Emergency Fund Grant and multiple Canada Council for the Arts grants in the last few years. He’s used the funding to create multiple award-winning projects, on his own terms and own time.

It is! Some comments from previous students:

“Thank you for a great and very inspiring workshop. I has really made me motivated.”
- Michael Bothager

“i just started my laptop just to say thanks to you!!

The workshop itself was from the first to the last minutes inspiring and intensive: listening, reading, writing but especially the direct implementation of everything said upon the tangle of thoughts and ideas in my head.
After 24 hours of bubbling and breeding, slowing down and recover ;-) I started writing and felt relieved of taking charge of it…it really feels like a fresh start. I hope once it will work out in grants, but still…even after a day your the workshop was worth it…"
- Linelle Deunk

“Thanks for the very inspiring workshop! I can really see now what went wrong so far, and what to do differently from now on. I’m pretty sure there will be a grant soon!”
- David de Jong

Former student Uwe Martin has won three separate grants totalling 16,000 Euro ($22,000) since taking the Grant Writing Workshop in Berlin.

Aaron Vincent Elkaim has won $20,000 since taking the workshop in Toronto.
