The Profitable Artist: Strategies for Your Arts Practice

New York Foundation for the Arts (NYFA) is pleased to invite artists, creatives and performers of all disciplines to join this free IN-PERSON workshop to support your creative practice. 

Drawing upon principles from The Profitable Artist (Allworth Press, 2018), a book that delves into “best practices” to planning and organizing an arts career, participants will explore tools to support their professional development alongside NYFA’s expert staff members.

Participants will have the opportunity to work through techniques for planning your career, as well as discuss action steps in line with their goals alongside local artists.  

This event welcomes artists and creatives of all disciplines, including but not limited to musicians, performers, dancers, actors, film/video artists and visual artists. Attendees do not need to read the book prior to joining. Copies of The Profitable Artist are available for loan through Brooklyn Public Library.

This workshop will be led by co-editor of the book and Director of NYFA Learning Felicity Hogan, along with NYFA Learning Program Officer in Career Advice and Training Kelly Olshan.
