Join us for a workshop on writing effective applications for residencies, grants, open calls, and any kind of funding opportunity writ large, hosted by Terry Plater. In addition to being an artist herself, Terry has worked in philanthropy in a variety of capacities: as a grant writer, grant reviewer, and grant recipient.
As an artist, Terry is a perceptual painter born and raised in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; widely traveled, she now lives in Ithaca, New York. A Black American artist working at the intersection of history and representation, Plater’s evocative large-scale oil paintings explore memory and imagination, portray loss and the need for invention, imply a sense of urgency, and infuse the painterly moment with a search for equanimity. A lover of many things, she holds graduate degrees in architecture (M. Architecture), city and regional planning (Ph.D.) and an MFA from the New York Academy of Art.
