DESCRIPTION
Are you working on writing grants or want to learn more about the process? Did you know that your grant will likely be reviewed by a panel of non-staff, who may even be from out of state, and who only know your work from the application in front of them and not the staff of the agency or foundation?

Join a panel conversation between three artists and administrators who have served on grant review panels for organizations like the South Dakota Arts Council. National Endowment for the Arts, Nebraska Arts Council, and more. All three also have experience from the other side of the process, having written and submitted grants of their own.

Learn tips and best practices to help you communicate efficiently and efficiently so that your application tells the full story of your work and gives you tools to put your best foot forward.

Adults are invited to make a set of their own mod podge tile coasters. All supplies will be provided, but you are welcome to bring photos or other decorative materials to make a masterpiece! Space is limited to 16, please RSVP at the library.

A social opportunity for caregivers and their loved ones with dementia to come together to enjoy camaraderie with others in a similar situation. Please join us for an interactive program, refreshments, fun and occasional entertainment. Resources and educational information available. No one needs to travel the dementia journey alone!
Offered in partnership with the Alzheimer's Association, South Dakota Chapter and the Western SD Dimentia Coalition
