Attention young creatives!
The City of Ballarat is launching its inaugural Young Creatives in Business program on Thursday 5 March at 4pm.
This free program, informed by youth voices, provides young people aged 12-25 with the skills, knowledge and networks to thrive as a creative entrepreneur, freelance artist or collective.
A series of monthly workshops will assist aspiring creatives to:
connect with experts in the field
be equipped with business basics to start up a creative enterprise
explore crowdfunding and grants programs
gain marketing and communication skills
sell art online and much more
The program will begin on Thursday with the first workshop - IPhonography for Makers. Sarah Weston, Retail and Business Development Manager at Craft Victoria, will teach participants how to professionally photograph their artwork with minimal effort and cost.
