Auspicious Arts Business Skills Development Program an Australian Government funded initiative under the Building Entrepreneurship in Small Business program

The Auspicious Incubator (AI) is a practical program that assists artists to define their business and its products, acquire the language of business and understand the business landscape. Importantly, it also assists artists to build the confidence and skills necessary to be a successful creative entrepreneur.

The program uses one-on-one and group learning to give creative entrepreneurs the confidence you need to analyse business risks and re-engineer your creative work to meet specific objectives.

The AI provides individual business support for up to 18 months through a structured needs-based learning program where you define the measures of success. This practical needs-based learning program operates alongside you as you develop your business and work towards achieving greater sustainability.

The program is highly flexible and will adapt to meet the needs of the intake group. It will provide you with a balance of structured learning, mentoring and coaching. The program also provides opportunities for you to help your friends and colleagues with their arts practice.

As an independent artist you are also a small business.

If you have produced work you have creative assets.

Give yourself the time to build business skill to match your creative talent.

Please call us if you are curious!
