Registration is open for a business course being offered in Moscow designed to help artists build a sustainable life in the arts.
The My Artrepreneur Program is offered by the Idaho Commission on the Arts in partnership with the Moscow Arts Commission. Participants attend four workshops and work with a mentor artist to develop their art as they build a toolkit for an art-centered business.
Fee and registration information is available by contacting john.mcmahon@arts.idaho.gov or at arts.idaho.gov/map.
The course is for those creating functional art in a variety of mediums including glass, wood, leather, metal, textiles, fiber and clay, and is taught by Edrienne L. Kittredge, a teacher, writer and traditional artist.
The workshops will be held at the Moscow City Hall council chambers, starting March 12-13 and continuing May 14-15, July 9-10 and Sept. 10-11. The commission will match student dollars 1-to-1, making tuition $500 per student.
