🚀 Grants, Funding, & Independent Artist Management: Workshop for Creatives

Are you an independent artist ready to take control of your financial future and professional career? This focused workshop is designed to equip you with the essential financial and administrative strategies needed to turn your artistic practice into a sustainable, thriving profession.

We will tackle the three core challenges facing today's independent creators:

1. Secure Funding: The Grant Writing Advantage

Stop leaving money on the table! We will demystify the grant application process, teaching you how to identify the right funding sources (government, foundation, and private) and craft powerful, reviewer-ready proposals that successfully secure the capital you need for your projects.

2. Financial Sustainability: Build a Solid Foundation

Move beyond gig-to-gig uncertainty. Learn the essentials of budgeting for projects, structuring your artistic business, and creating diversified revenue streams to ensure your creative output is financially stable for the long term.

3. The DIY Manager: Professionalizing Your Practice

You are your own CEO. This session covers the core management skills you need: strategic career planning, effective contract negotiation, and mastering the administrative demands of intellectual property (IP) protection and key relationship management.

Walk away with a concrete plan to professionalize your practice and maximize your career potential.
