Best Practices for an Artrepreneur

Many artists feel like they have two sides: creators who have the skills to bring something tangible into the world — your strong suit — and the business side — where you’re less confident and sure of yourself.

In this workshop, you will be discussing the Artrepreneur, the individual who can both create and also make a living from it. Learn how to take basic business principles and apply them to what you love to do. This workshop will touch on some of the roles you will have to take on, (Artist, Brand Manager, Business Manager, Financial Manager), some simple behaviors you can apply right away, how to set expectations, how to clearly define your product, set and meet goals, and much more! Learn to fuse the artist and entrepreneur in you!
