This workshop is the starting point for artists who are doing what they love but not quite making a living yet. We’ll outline the services and resources available to you at YES and from other arts organizations in the community, and touch upon key things to consider in building a career or business in the arts. Topics include: getting to know your industry, marketing/promotion, developing relationships with stakeholders, understanding the funding landscape and essential grant-writing tips.
Making the right financing decisions for your business is vital, but getting to the right choice can be confusing, and even risky. Hear from our panel of funding experts who will discuss the various financial options that are available, including community and government grants and loans, banks, venture capital, angel investors, crowdfunding and other alternate sources.
This workshop is designed to guide you through the ins and outs of the various steps that go into the successful planning and execution of an exhibition! Moreover, it will provide those in attendance with gallery or cultural space perspective. You’ll learn what these stakeholders are looking for, how to speak their language, and how to break through and stand out compared to your peers when seeking the coveted space needed to host an expo!
