The Smart Artist

Who wants to get nerdy about finances with me this November?!

I'm teaching THREE different workshops with the amazing Dancer Transition Resource Centre, and I am PUMPED 🎉

Oh, and...the workshops are FREE!

https://dtrc.ca/evolve/evolve-foundations/

While this series is focused on dance professionals, the content is truly useful to anyone working in the arts/self-employment world.

We'll be talking about things like budgeting (but ditching the old-school boring budget tips and using modern hacks!), saving & investing (+ my fave tools to make it happen in your sleep), and all things TAXES!

~And: if you know me, you know I'll make it all FUN!~ 🎉

These sessions are LIVE* online, interactive, and there's devoted time to answer alllllll your burning money questions.
*Replays will be available to anyone who registers in advance.

(Making this public; share away!)

Learn from artist-experts about business and financial strategies to support your career – in, alongside and beyond dance. Find out what works and how to put it into practice for yourself. Discover tips, tools, tactics, and tricks to move you into a savvy and sustainable future.
