Description: The journey to building a sustainable career as an artist rarely follows a straight line. Instead, it’s often a patchwork of opportunities, side gigs, collaborations, and self-driven projects. In this session, we'll explore how to embrace the "cobbling together" approach to creating a fulfilling and resilient artistic career. Whether you’re juggling multiple roles, navigating the gig economy, or finding unconventional ways to make your work thrive, this session will offer practical insights and inspiration.
Bryan Blaskie '09 & Olivia Van Goor '19 will talk about their paths to building unique careers with multiple sources of income. By breaking down their individual experiences into the shared tools & skills, participants will be able to translate the techniques & exercises into a career strategy that works for them.
