ENGLISH WILL FOLLOW 🎨 Vous connaissez l’art. Nous pouvons vous enseigner les affaires.
Cet atelier en deux parties est conçu pour donner aux artistes des outils concrets afin de bâtir une carrière durable. Nous aborderons des notions essentielles en affaires et en marketing, adaptées spécifiquement au milieu artistique.
👉 Développez votre pratique artistique ou votre entreprise de façon stratégique pour stimuler votre croissance!
🔹 Partie 1 : Le pitch – Mercredi 27 mai
Votre art a du potentiel — encore faut-il savoir le présenter sur papier.
Dans cette première séance, vous apprendrez à rédiger un pitch clair, convaincant et riche en contexte, qui met en valeur votre projet dès les premières lignes. À l’aide d’une liste de vérification essentielle, vous verrez comment présenter votre travail avec clarté et persuasion.
🔹 Partie 2 : Budgets + échéanciers – Mercredi 3 juin
Toute demande de subvention gagnante repose sur des budgets et échéanciers cohérents et rigoureux.
Cette séance portera sur l’élaboration des meilleures pratiques pour créer des documents solides qui renforceront vos prochaines demandes de financement.

Caroline Gauthier, MBA, HEC — Coach d’affaires pour artistes chez YES
