Accessibility for Our Educational Workshops

Educational Services & Support

Grim Works provides educational and music and production support and services to marginalized artists. Grimalkin was founded on the premise of marginalized artists supporting each other. We are forging alternative systems of support for artists and musicians.

With Grimalkin's support through fundraising and grants, as well as guidance from certified and experienced educators, we create, organize and facilitate educational workshops and skillshares for artists and musicians. The workshops and skillshare sessions provide culturally appropriate guidance and assistance to new and experienced artists who are within the LGBTQIA+ community with priority to trans and queer BIPOC artists and musicians. The workshops skillshare sessions are created, organized, led and facilitated by trans, queer and BIPOC artists and musicians. We also use a sliding scale system for those who are able to contribute and help pay for workshops and skillshare sessions.

We are currently applying for grants and we are constantly fundraising for various expenses and mutual aid so that we may be able to eventually and ASAP accommodate accessibility, learning and language needs.

Once we can afford Wordly, it uses AI to translate anyone speaking during the workshop into any language via text and audio that you can read and/or listen to in your language in real time.

Once we can afford Wordly, folks attending our workshops will be able to request a transcript of the workshop in whichever language they choose, including English.

We will not be able to afford Wordly until we receive grant funding or donations to cover it yearly. Wordly costs $750 for all languages per 5 hours and $6750 for a year in advance for 60 hours.

ASL interpreters cost between $75-$150 per hour. Most require you to hire them for a 2 hour minimum.
