Artpreneurship
Restless Creator
Artpreneurship is a uniquely designed hybrid program to help creatives learn the language of business for a successful, impactful and purposeful career. Learn how to utilize the arts to have a thriving career as an artpreneur.
About Our Program
Artpreneurship is intended to create a broad and deep understanding for artists and students in humanities to leverage their talent and develop a series of skills and knowledge that will enhance their career path for business practices. Students in the arts and humanities fields have always been known to “create,” and many do so for personal reasons and to share their work with others. These students combine creativity and critical thinking, and they are natural collaborators. Through Artpreneurship, we believe students in the program, while developing their personal work, can adapt and transform their work for an artpreneurial venture. A special focus is placed on exploring, learning and practicing sustainability, particularly “upcycling” and accessibility from basic concepts to advanced approaches, as part of the business application.
