“WORK_SPACE has multiple missions including fostering innovation, supporting entrepreneurs and building community” says Stacey Zackin, WORK_SPACE Manager, “By offering these Business of Art workshops and partnering with The RiseUP Group, we are accomplishing all three. Many artists understand how to source material, price and promote their work and find the best exhibit spaces, however, many don’t. By bringing artists together we hope that they will share best practices, develop personal and professional relationships, and help us build a community that celebrates the diversity of life, art and culture.”
