This course takes place over 3 sessions on March 2nd, March 9th, and March 16th.

Can I make a living by selling my art full-time? Why are my artist friends' careers thriving, while mine is at a standstill? How can I grow my art practice by using different styles or mediums, without losing my current audience? These questions may come to an artist's mind at different points throughout their professional career. While the answers are unique to each artist; all can benefit from gaining the entrepreneurial skills needed to move from one professional step to another successfully.
