Radical Printmaking
Justseeds A Pittsburgh-based design collective brings together a group of North American artists to tackle various political issues through remarkable prints and design.
This week the Grant Writing Team gathered valuable information from the class about materials needed to make the workshops even more successful. It feels good to be supporting our own class and BICAS simultaneously! We've seen examples of successful grants that Marissa has composed, and we can use those as a guide when writing our own.
We are going to include monies for scholarships for workshops to kids that might not have the money to attend and subsidies to the instructors to make workshops more affordable. Now that we have a materials list, we can make a budget that is specific down to the dollar. We have to show how these funds will support Wells Fargo's philanthropic goals of supporting lower income neighborhoods so we might be able to use the statistics gathered from last year's grant team to highlight this. It seems like every year the grant teams build on the past work of the last year's team. If we keep this up, we can provide a guide for next year's teams to be even more successful!
Dr. Dylan Miner from justseeds visited our class last year! If you'd like to learn more about him, the talk he gave was archived (along with documnetation of the justseeds exhibition at the Joseph Gross Gallery)!
