* From July 2012-December 212, artists are expected to attend monthly meetings and training/development opportunities. Topics include: developing a 5-year plan, fundraising for artists, marketing, basic tools every artists needs, and many more.

* Along the way, you will receive one-on-one consultations about your artistic career from respected artists.
