Description
The ultimate handbook for artists and makers to learn how to deliver outstanding in person and online workshops.
Packed full of advice, inspiration and practical information, this book goes into all aspects of creating quality workshops, from curating a program and identifying your target students, to finding the best platform – be it in person or online. Additionally, you'll learn how to teach your creative skills all whilst juggling the practicalities of pricing and marketing. As well as checklists, examples and action points there are case studies, photos and Q&As with a wide variety of artists who successfully teach a variety of subjects such as printmaking, embroidery, ceramics, jewellery-making and hand-weaving.
Award-winning creative business adviser, trainer and coach, Patricia van den Akker, teaches you how to become a better and more confident teacher and how to promote and launch your workshops to turn them into a profitable venture, whether delivering them to amateur adults, peers, or specialist groups.
