What happens when being yourself actually works, and nobody hands you a map for what comes next.
About this Event

When there's no limit to what you can create, the hardest question isn't how. It's why.
Artist and Now What? author Adam J. Kurtz gets real about what happens when "be yourself" actually works. Expect heart, humor, and stories that'll make you feel better about your own f'ed-up creative process.
Let's get personal:

  • Connect who you are to what you make, and why it matters
  • Reframe the big questions around failure, change, and the unexpected weight of success
  • Explore what profit really looks like: financial, creative, and otherwise

It's a true story of going from "popular online" to major client work, a million books sold, and a retail business of his own, with all the lessons, doubts, and surprises along the way.

After the event, you’re invited to join us for a reception and signing of A limited number of copies will be available for purchase at the the event.
