About this Event
The Art of Making It: Building Your Artist Career Roadmap
A Free, Interactive Workshop with Stina Aleah
You make the art. But how do you build a career around it?
Join award-winning artist Stina Aleah at Muse for a practical, interactive, two-hour workshop designed to help artists move beyond inspiration and start building a sustainable creative career.
Drawing from her experience building a six-figure art business, Stina will guide participants through the essential elements of developing, growing, and sustaining a professional art practice.
This isn’t just about dreaming bigger. It’s about identifying your opportunities, strengthening your approach, and figuring out what steps to take next.
WHAT YOU’LL EXPLORE
- Artistic identity: Clarify your creative direction and what makes your work distinct.
- Multiple income streams: Explore ways to build revenue through fine art, commissions, murals, collaborations, and other opportunities.
- Pricing your work: Consider how to approach pricing with greater confidence and intention.
- Finding opportunities: Identify potential clients, markets, and platforms for your work.

- Building relationships: Explore how professional connections can support your creative growth.

WHAT YOU’LL WALK AWAY WITH
Through guided exercises and practical examples, you’ll begin creating your own Artist Career Roadmap. This personalized working plan will help you identify your goals, potential opportunities, and actionable next steps.
You’ll leave with greater clarity, practical tools, and a roadmap you can continue implementing long after the workshop ends.
