The "starving artist" narrative ends here. We’re giving artists the tools for stability and career longevity we wish we had, starting with the financial admin they’ve been dreading.
And you’re invited. Together, we’ll tackle everything from paying taxes as an artist and creating a grant application budget to saving for a rainy day on inconsistent income.
Afterwards, unwind with a happy hour and bites to connect with the broader artist community.
The full event is free, but space is limited. RSVP early!

FAQ
Who can attend?
Dancers and multidisciplinary artists looking to own their careers with greater financial clarity and stability. This party is open to our extended artist community.
What should I bring?
The paperwork or financial tasks you say you’ll get to next week (or the week after or after that one). Like opening a High Yield Savings Account or calling a financial institution to reverse a charge or lower a bill. Laptops welcome - please let us know in your rsvp if you do not have a laptop and we will do our best to provide a device for your use at the session.
What will we bring?
A safe space and expert guidance. Ask the silly question! You’ll leave with more clarity and fewer loose ends.
Will this cost me anything?
Nope. We will not be taking your nickels at this time. The Paperwork Party and happy hour are 100% free for our community.
