Creative Manitoba works with various partner organizations to offer one-off workshops and workshop series throughout the year. All of our programs have a focus on the business side of being an artist and are taught by artists and professionals from a variety of disciplines. Topics include artist taxes, grant writing, arts marketing, social media, artist websites, and more. Check out all of the upcoming workshops!
Check out some of our upcoming workshops tailored to artists who want to increase their business acumen, develop their artistic practice, or just brush up on some hard skills. See the full list of workshops below.
Do you need a professional kick start to your creative career? Do you need support and direction with the business side of your art? Feel a need to connect with peers facing similar challenges?
The Art of Managing Your Career may be for you! Guided by a knowledgeable team leader, this program provides artists with access to a professional co-working space and business skills training with guest lecturing by seasoned industry professionals. Participants will also get access to coaching from industry experts in business planning, finance and tax management, marketing and social media, and life work balance. This program is open to artists of all disciplines running their own creative practice.
Applying for grants to fund your creative projects is a crucial step in your artist’s journey. With the guidance of established Indigenous artists, Building Your Artist Bundle will walk you through each part of the grant application to help you define who you are as an artist and write a compelling proposal.
Each of the four workshops will be led by an established Indigenous Artist or Relational Maker. The workshops are centered around the four sacred medicines, teachings will be shared, and we will build your project applications from the ground up.
