Building a Sustainable Life as an Artist - Intensive Workshop on April 1 & 2

Based on ten years of work with artists locally and nationally, artist leaders will offer tools for reconnecting with our deep values, building community, and slaying the two demons of the artist’s life: time and money.

at The Arden Studio Theater (40 N. 2nd Street)
AND
Saturday, April 2, 10:00 am - 5:00 pm
at Fringearts (140 N. Columbus Blvd)

How much does it cost? It’s free (but the class size is limited).
Who is it for? Any professional Philadelphia artist. (Art making is a central focus of your life. You have professional training or its equivalent in years of practice. You present you work publicly.)

Will there be beverages? Of course. And lunch on Saturday.
