Online Workshop - Cashflow for Creatives

Making a living from your craft means learning, understanding and embracing the flow of money in and out of your practice. 

Financial literacy and concepts like ‘cashflow’ are necessities for creative practitioners and arts workers who want to take their passion to a professional level. Cashflow for Creatives is a short workshop designed by creative practitioners to help other artists understand and embrace the rollercoaster of income and expenses that comes with working in the arts. It’s a safe space where every question is welcome, and the mysteries of money will become a little clearer. 
  

You will learn the following, with a special focus on arts practice and creative industries:

• The ‘famine and the feast’ – weathering the ups and downs of creative income.

• The flow of money out – understanding and making realistic budgets.

• The basics of forecasting, and how to develop a ‘crystal ball’ for income.

• The flow of money In – understanding income and how to create regularity.

• Practical steps to getting financially organised.

Cashflow for Creatives is a relaxed and interactive workshop that guides participants with practical tools and steps tailor made for the arts (not mysterious accounting formulas).
