If you are a Windows shop (using Visual Studio, etc.), I would try to use the Gtk# Installer for .NET Framework SDK, so that you can start using some of the C#/Gtk# Application project templates that get installed and are accessible through Visual Studio "New Project" in the File menu. This may give you a way to begin playing with Gtk# development right from the comfort of your Windows development environment. The resulting application can later be rapidly used in *NIX OS that sport modern versions of GTK/GNOME.
MonoDoc documentation has quite a bit of information on Gtk# and consulting the Gtk# mailing list along with participation on the #mono IRC channel would get you started.
