HOW TO MAKE A LIVING IN THE ARTS offers artists (writer's, musicians, actors, etc.) concrete steps for getting from where they are to where they want to be. Unlike other artist workshops that focus primarily on marketing, this workshop takes a more holistic approach as it focuses on ALL the component parts of an artistic life: competition, self-doubt, talent, making enough moneyto thrive, navigating the economy, staying on track with your goals, grants,commercial vs. non-commercial work, etc. I am dedicated to helping creative people find soulful employment, no matter where they are in theircareers.
In this workshop you will:
-Construct a passionate vision for your ideal life;
-Discover seven key areas that allow you to make art, make money, and make a difference;
-Find a market (or markets) for their work;
- Learn how to manage and overcome fears/negativity that are unique to the artist;
-Identify income streams that flow directly from your passions;
- Model your career on the lives of already successful artists.
You will walk away from this workshop with a strategic plan and action steps designed to move you directly toward your dream.
