Apply for an ACF Event Grant by November 1 to help you make it a reality!
The Access Copyright Foundation Event Grant program provides support to organizations and artist groups holding festivals, reading series, conferences and workshops, whether held in-person, online or a combination of both, that celebrate publishable works or provide opportunities for professional development to writers, artists, publishers and individuals employed at organizations that serve these communities.
If you’ve never applied before, please read through the application guidelines and contact Joanne Gerber, Program Consultant for SK Arts (who administers these grants) to discuss your event before preparing and submitting an application.

The two primary changes are as follows:
