Gaining the Competitive Edge workshops are designed for both novice and experienced grant writers and focus on creating competitive grant applications using the agency’s Grants Online system.

To support programs throughout the state, NAC offers a dozen grant categories. New for 2013, NAC is presenting two types of workshops, one for artists and educators who would apply for grants as individuals and one for representatives of nonprofit organizations, schools and public institutions that would apply for grants as organizations.

“We continue to see an increase in requests for NAC grant funding,” Ann Libby, NAC grants program coordinator, said. “We strongly recommend that both new grant-seekers and existing grantees join us for these training opportunities that have been designed with both types of users in mind.”
