AA2A’s Creative Futures online seminars bring experts and artists together to explore the skills you need to succeed. Exploring themes including starting your own business and managing finances to understanding selling and marketing, these interactive sessions give you the chance to ask questions and dive deep into what matters most.
New this year: When you sign up, you’ll be asked to suggest topics about working in the creative industries for this year’s seminars. Tell us what sparks your curiosity and we’ll turn your ideas into this year’s programme. What would you love to hear more about?
Registration opening soon!
