Discover how your personal working style shapes your approach to business. In this in-person, interactive workshop, we’ll explore your mission, vision, and values—then apply them to real-world business structures using the Business Model Canvas. Together, we’ll dive into pricing strategies, marketing approaches, and sustainable models tailored to your goals. Expect engaging group discussions, practical takeaways, and a supportive space to refine your current business—or bring a new idea to life. Come ready to dig in and collaborate!

The class will include a one-hour lunch break. Please bring your lunch, or plan to grab a quick bite at a nearby restaurant.

Admission price includes access to four self-paced online courses, so that you can continue working on your business skills after the workshop:

  • Pricing Your Work
  • Photographing Your Work
  • Optimizing Your Web Presence
  • Grant Writing for Artists
