Work of Art: Business Skills for Artists

Work of Art: Business Skills for Artists is a professional development curriculum designed to teach business skills to artists in all disciplines — visual, performing and literary arts. Artists can take the whole series, customized combinations, or individual workshops that best suit their needs. Developed by Springboard for the Arts, this 12-week workshop series has been taught at arts organizations around the country.

The 567 Center is excited to offer the Work of Art curriculum this fall at The 567 Center as part of the Amplify program. The workshops will be led by a variety of local artists who will bring their own experience to share as they teach and discuss each topic. Wednesdays, 6:30-8:30 pm, at The 567 Center.
