The Artist Resource Help Desk (ARHD) provides professional guidance for artists seeking assistance with grants, proposals, presentations, marketing (newsletters, flyers, etc.) and connections to resources to support their creative practice. The program offers guidance and access to some cloud-based tools. Artists may bring their own computers and materials or use public computers and resources at the library.

The goal is to help artists as they seek funding and opportunities and look to build their audiences. Artists should come with a specific project in mind which they want help to realize or feedback to refine. This program also serves as an important opportunity to learn more about the needs and dreams of artists in our community!

Through the ARHD, artists can access support and consultation for opportunities that take administrative or computer skills, such as:

Grant editing and development
Marketing materials
Slide decks
Sponsorship or partnership proposals
Research for residencies, funding, or other opportunities
