The workshop was the best spent three hours of my week,” stated the Warehouse Theatre’s Director of Development, Katie Leckenbusch. “It was an ideal opportunity to connect with funders in a meaningful way and to have constructive conversations with my peers in the non-profit sector. You will see me at the next workshop.
