5-Week Creative Entrepreneur Bootcamp

Across Appalachia, creativity thrives in studios, kitchens, classrooms, and small businesses built on skill, originality, and imagination. Yet many talented creatives struggle to turn their work into stable, sustainable income—not because of a lack of talent, but because traditional business education is not designed for the realities of creative work.

To address this gap, Create Appalachia—Where Art Means Business—is offering the Avante Creative Entrepreneur Bootcamp, a practical, hands-on program designed specifically for creative professionals. Participants will learn how to price and pitch their work, build authentic customer relationships, market their work and understand finance. Whether your creative work is a side hustle, or a serious idea ready to grow, this course can help you build a successful business.
