March Artist Workshops

BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND!
Two popular workshops presenters are back to share more business insights for artists and creatives in March 2021!
First Up – Attorney Sarah Conley Odenkirk returns to dive deeper into two topics featured during our 2020 “Artists in the Know" series: Contracts on March 4th and Copyright on March 18th. These free online workshops will give artists the opportunity to build on the previous round of workshops and tackle some more specific business and legal questions and scenarios.
The second series of March workshops will feature artist Bill Dambrova leading “Digital Files for Public Art" workshops, on March 11th and March 25th. These will provide more in-depth demonstrations of graphic editing and 3D modeling software commonly used to design and fabricate a wide range of public art projects.
These events are open to the public, but they require registration. Register Here. Once registered, you will receive log-in information to attend your event(s). Each event has a unique log-in.
If you missed any of the 2020 sessions, they are available free on the POAC YouTube page.
Equity Workshops and Organizational Assessment
Since 2017, the Phoenix Office of Arts and Culture researched, reviewed case studies, and identified values, concepts, and practices concerning equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) as it relates to the Office of Arts and Culture's programs. For the 2021-2022 Community Arts Grants Program, we welcome applicants to participate in racial equity trainings presented by EDI consultant Kathy Hsieh and take part in a pilot equity assessment of their organization.
