Arts North West is partnering with Creative Plus Business to delivering two free Business Connect  workshops designed to help local creatives from across the region this Saturday.

Arts North West and Creative Plus Business are excited to support the growth and development of the  creative community in the New England North West. Whether it is for business or just for fun, these  professional development sessions are designed to empower creatives with the knowledge and skills they  need to excel in their creative endeavours. 

The team from Creative Plus Business will be delivering the two professional development workshops at the  Armidale UNE SMART Region Incubator – Nova Centre. 

SESSION 1: FREELANCE SKILLS FOR CREATIVES 

Freelancing in the creative industries is a fact of life. Even curious hobbyists and serial employees will need  to understand the basics – not to mention those who have chosen to freelance professionally in their craft.  Freelance Skills for Creatives is a fast, funny and practical presentation specifically designed for creative  practitioners with absolutely no business skills, to help them get the five most important elements of  creative freelancing just right.

Date: Saturday, November 11, 2023 
Time: 10.30 am – 12.30 pm  
Location: UNE SMART Region Incubator – Nova Centre, 122 Faulkner St, Armidale NSW 2350

SESSION 2: PRICING FOR CREATIVES 

Working out what to charge for creative products and services can be a colossal challenge. Where to even  start? Pricing for Creatives is a practical workshop that covers the basics of figuring out the price point for  creative work, including calculating costs and understanding what the market can bear. Pricing for Creatives  is vital for anyone struggling to understand the value of their own work, and how to share that value with others.

Time: 1.30 pm – 3.30 pm  
Location: UNE SMART Region Incubator- Nova Centre, 122 Faulkner St, Armidale NSW 2350
