Grant Writing Workshops

Grant writing workshops are offered periodically through the year.

Travel Oregon has currently been offering a Grantsmithing 101 workshop designed to strengthen participants’ skills, sharpen their strategy, and help them approach grants from a funder’s perspective. The workshop was held in three regions of the state during 2025 in coordination with Oregon Coast Visitors Association (Yachats and Reedsport), Travel Southern Oregon (Grants Pass), and Travel Portland (Downtown Portland). In 2026, workshops were held in coordination with the Willamette Valley Visitors Association (Albany and Salem) and Oregon Coast Visitors Association (Lincoln City).

Additional workshops will be held in more tourism regions during 2027.

Grantsmithing 101 with Travel Oregon, April 27

After convening a grant review panel, one of the common phrases from participants is “I wish I had known what this conversation was like before I wrote my grant!” Travel Oregon’s Investments Team is offering the opportunity to do just that by attending the upcoming grantsmithing session as part of Visit Central Oregon’s Industry Summit on April 27, 2027.
