The Business of Creativity
The Lehigh Valley Arts & Cultural Alliance is excited to announce a new series of virtual professional development sessions focused on financial and legal topics facing today’s artistic community.
Individual creatives of all genres are invited to join us for this series of workshops to learn more about the business of the arts in this ever-changing environment.
Each month, industry-leading presenters will explore a topic from the legal or financial worlds.
Virtual sessions will be held the second Thursday of each month at 2:00 PM EST.
The cost to attend is $25/session, but is complimentary for LVACA members.
