NEW! Sustaining Yourself as a Working Artist: A Discussion at the Center
for Cultural Innovation
Recent research indicates that contemporary artists, who envision and
build their practice(s) as individual or small business persons, achieve
success differently than in the past and differently than most other
entrepreneurs. Generally speaking, artists balance greater crossover
investments from multiple jobs, requiring more time management, with
updated outlooks about available resources and limited access to new
technologies.

In the new marketplace, artists are increasingly finding newer ways to
sustain themselves. Join us for an insightful evening with three Los
Angeles based artist-entrepreneurs who use their skills and creativity
to generate multiple income streams in order to achieve healthy
productivity.

Joe Smoke from the City of Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs
will moderate a discussion with Cindy Bennett (visual artist), Lisa
Lynne (music), and Jodi Nelson (film and theater).

Time: 6:00 p.m. - 8:00 p.m.
