About this Event
Welcome to the Seattle Africatown-Blackdot Artrepreneurs creative arts program!
“The 15 objectives of the program which focus on empowering creatives mentally, physically, spiritually, emotionally, financially, socially, and culturally, is made up of (but not only limited to) creatives of the African diaspora coming together to network, educate, and create a supportive community and an accountability group for the purpose of growing and thriving, individually and together. In this group, you will have the chance to be trained by premiere Seattle artists, meet and interact with all types of creatives, receive tools and tips for growing your career, and more. The idea is that the creatives come together to formulate partnerships, teach, and exchange their products, services, literacy, and resources among each other.”

Financially Empowering Your Creative Passion - Program
Every cultural worker of any ability can get started within 2 weeks-30 days no matter the age phase or stage of their creative journey. The program begins as a series of questions about the cultural worker themselves, their business, goals, dreams, experiences, needs, expectations, knowledge of business administration principles, and timelines. The questions are developed into a conversation that helps guide the creative individual to strategize, based on the responses, an executable plan to scale their creative art portfolio values $100,000+ in one year - again which they can start within 2 weeks - 30 days. The significance of the value is rooted in the levels of lending ability and revenue or credit pooling scale output possibilities.
The responses guide the creative on:
- Products and/or services development.
- How products and or services solve problems.
- How products and or services answer questions.
- How products and or services supply a need or demand.
- How products and or services improve quality of life (mental, physical, spiritual, emotional, financial, creative, environmental.
Cultural workers strategize their focus on:
- How to leverage product or service sales to individuals or other businesses (per individual units or bulk order quantities).
- Creating valuable sales that lead to repeat purchases (multi-service contract orders for repeat services or unit product orders).
- How to get grants.
- Understanding and securing government contracts/Requests For Proposals.
- How to leverage (multiple) financial institution products, tools, and instruments
- Expected return(s) on investment (time, energy, money inputs vs. outputs and scale).
- Networks and partnerships.
