Who should attend? Those who need grant money!

     If you're part of a Georgia school system, college, library, historical society, museum, cultural organization, or government agency, then this workshop is probably one you'll be interested in. 
     It's a grant writing workshop, conducted by the Georgia Humanities Council and sponsored by the Moultrie-Colquitt County Library System.  It will be held Saturday, March 26th, 1 to 3:30 p.m., right here in the library at 204 5th Street Southeast, Moultrie, Georgia.
     The workshop will be led by Arden Williams, Program Officer for the Georgia Humanities Council.  She's also the state coordinator for Georgia tours of traveling Smithsonian exhibits.  Arden previously worked for the National Archives Southeast Region, presenting educational programs within the community, working with genealogists and directing the student interns.  And she's been an adjunct professor at Clayton State University, teaching Introduction to Public History.  (A busy lady, huh?)
     What Arden wants to let you know is that grant guidelines have changed.  And because of that, organizations interested in applying for grants from the Georgia Humanities Council are encouraged to have staff members or volunteers attend this FREE (YES!  I said FREE!) training workshop.
     It's not hard to register (and registration is requested).  Just call the library at 229-985-6540 or email us right here at mccls@mccls.org.  I understand we already have twelve people signed up and we're a week-and-a-half away from the event.
     Hear ye!  Hear ye!  FREE grant writing workshop!   For those who need grant money!
