The Midwest Art Conservation Center Presents Grant Writing for Advanced 
Conservation Projects

April 19-20, 2007 at the Landmark Center in Saint Paul, MN

MACC staff will teach this two-day workshop with consultant Barbara 
Davis.  Ms. Davis is a consultant and grant writer with 30 years 
experience.  She is the author of "Writing a Successful Grant Proposal," 
currently available on the website for the Minnesota Council on 
Foundations.  In addition to her consulting, Ms. Davis has held key 
directorial positions at the Minnesota Dance Theater and Resources and 
Counseling for the Arts.  Currently she runs her own consulting business 
and works as the lead consultant to the Philadelphia Cultural Leadership 
Program, Pew Charitable Trusts.  Her knowledge and experience has assisted 
hundreds of small, medium, and large nonprofits compete successfully for 
grant funding.

The instructors will present a comprehensive workshop on grant-writing for 
advanced conservation-related projects such as: HVAC System upgrades; major 
storage renovations or additions, Object-by-Object detailed surveys of 
collections; actual conservation treatments and other large scale or large 
budget preservation and conservation projects. Barbara Davis will 
concentrate on writing grant proposals to private funding sources for 
matching funds. The goal of the workshop is for participants to leave the 
session with a realistic and practical understanding of advanced grant 
writing for large scale or large budget preservation and conservation 
project proposals. Preservation Services staff will then follow-up with 
participants who are developing full grant applications.

Registration fees for this two-day workshop will be $235 for MACC members 
and $295 for non-members.  Staff and volunteers from institutions with a 
total operating budget below $50,000 and currently enrolled students 
qualify for reduced fee.  Please contact our office for details.
