NYSCA/NYFA Artist as Entrepreneur Boot Camp

The Artist as Entrepreneur Boot Camp offers the fundamental principles of sustainability—and ultimately profitability—in the arts. This includes topics such as strategic planning, finance, and marketing. Participants create a flexible and dynamic “action plan” and connect with other artists while building business skills essential to supporting a creative career. Each participant will receive specific feedback from experts in the field as well as their peers in the program.
