On The Road Again

Throughout this process, the grant group has been through many options we could potentially work toward, but with difficulty in communication and gaining insight into BICAS, we are now working toward writing a grant where funds will flow directly to the next Community, Culture, and Art Education class. These funds will aid the next class in developing and putting on workshops for BICAS.

Here is the list of supplies the other two groups came up with as needs with some of the prices found:

We are now taking the items on this list to create an itemized list of items to include in the grant.
Megan and I were both originally involved in creating documentation to help BICAS follow up on grants that could potentially help their eligibility for future grants. We are now going to switch gears and create that documentation plan for this grant instead.

We are on the right track and I am excited to see where this grant will lead!
