These workshops, available as a set OR individually, will take artists, actors and creative entrepreneurs into a more in-depth understanding of business principles, entrepreneurship, and managing a career as a freelance artist.

We'll borrow from MBA principles and corporate structures to begin the process of starting or growing your business as a micropreneur. ___________________________________________________________ Class size is limited.
