Music Industry Masterclasses in June  – Improving Your Grant Writing

Put it in your calendars: Thursday 20 June! We return for the next workshop of our Music Industry Masterclasses series all about Improving Your Grant Writing.

Grants provide an incredible opportunity to get the funding you need to advance your music career. Working on that next album? A video clip? A tour? There’s all sorts of creative grants out there just waiting for your applications – but it can seem quite daunting when sitting down to write one. Hear from some of our industry legends about how to get started, what they’ve learned works and get ready to become a grant writing pro!

Join Kerry Kennell (Director of Kennell&Co Impact Consulting & Strategy), Lorrae McKenna (Our Golden Friend / Golden Grants) and Dale Packard (Music Victoria) to hear all the best advice for writing a successful grant.

The session will be facilitated by Jamison Kehl, The Push Workshop Facilitator, and we'll cap the event off with a live music performance by the talented Mathilde Anne (Solo)!

There'll also be FREE Roll'd Vietnamese with vegan and gluten-free options.

While the program is FREE, registrations are essential to attend online or in person!
