ACX Grant Discussion on Aug 9th

[Skyler Crossman]

What: Practice pitching grants and cowork to submit some.
When:  Saturday, August 9, 2025; 11am - 2pm
Where:  Newton Centre Green (Centre St & Beacon St, Newton, MA, USA)  
Run By: duck_master

 The 2025 ACX grants round is officially out! The goal of this meetup is to generate at least one (hopefully multiple!) promising project proposal that we can submit to ACX grants. The deadline for applications is Friday, August 15.  

Tentative schedule for the meetup:

• 11am - 11:30am: introductions + waiting for people to arrive
• 11:30am - 12:30pm: project pitches! (Depending on how many people show up, I may limit the time for each pitch. Also, note that pitches are not competitive, so you are totally welcome to cheer for or even work on someone else's pitch; and you're not required to have come up with an idea/project beforehand either.)
• 12:30pm - 1:30pm: collaboratively write and submit at least one application
• 1:30pm - 2pm: general chitchat

Rain date is Sunday, August 10, 2025 - same time, same place.

(Note: I, Skyler, am forwarding the event but I probably won't be able to attend.)
