BAC offers informational how-to-apply seminars, one-on-one feedback on projects, application draft reviews and panel feedback to all BAC Grants applicants, creating a supportive professional development opportunity out of the application process.
Seminars include an overview of the eligibility guidelines and funding opportunities offered, a detailed explanation of the application process and the online application, a chance to meet BAC staff and other applicants, a question and answer session, and tips on writing a successful grant application.
Attendance is required for applicants that have not been funded by BAC since 2012. Because guidelines and application procedures may vary from year to year, all applicants are strongly encouraged to attend. Informational seminars are free and open to anyone interested in applying to a BAC Grant.
***At the end of this seminar, there will be a SPARC Q&A. Kathleen Christie, Arts in Education Director at Brooklyn Arts Council, will be available to answer questions regarding the specifics of the SPARC program.
