(8/8/2014) 
 
  • Learn about the fundamentals involved to best grow your business - your art! Listen to other artists who have succeeded in making a living with their art.
  • Take advantage of the amazing opportunity for your artwork to get high visibility through public presentation. Let the entire East End be your audience!
  • Become an influential catalyst for creative placemaking in the local community.
  •  This program is open to all arts disciplines (visual art, music, theatre, poetry, etc).
East End Arts has developed an intensive curriculum dedicated to the business side of art. It is our belief that with the necessary tools, an artist is better able to take advantage of creative opportunities that arise and be more likely to be aware of opportunities that exist. A limited number of artists of any discipline will be accepted into JumpstART.

 

In addition to a number of workshops and mentorships, all accepted participating artists will have the unprecedented opportunity to design and implement a public art project in downtown Riverhead during the Summer of 2015 and/or in East Hampton during another season.
