Don’t Miss the 2017 Creative Resources Conference

The Creative Resources Conference is back and is bigger and better than ever. The first 1Berkshire Creative Resources Conference was held on November 12, 2015, at Hotel on North and drew more than 80 attendees and connected dozens of artists and entrepreneurs with experts, resources, and advice in order to advance their creative pursuits. This year’s Creative Resources Conference looks to do the same but on a larger scale and because of this will take place at MASS MoCA allowing us more space to connect and be inspired. The Conference will be on Tuesday, January 24, 2017, at 8:30 AM to 5:30 PM. Then join us for a relaxing post-conference reception at Bright Ideas Brewing.

Join us for this annual event.This all-day event is a “how-to” “where-to” for artists, creative entrepreneurs, and cultural nonprofits. There will be dozens of speakers and informative panel discussions for creatives on sustainable selling, community impact, digital marketing, financial planning, business scaling, and accounting. NEW for this year, there will also be nonprofit specific panels on building audiences, employment, and community connections. Enjoy the luxury of choosing between these 9 unique options to create a specialized itinerary just for you, to make the most of your day with us.

To keep everyone energized, mid-day at the Conference you will hear from our keynote speaker, Cathy Edwards, Executive Director of the New England Foundation for the Arts (NEFA). Cathy Edwards is sure to inspire. She brings with her years of creative economy experience and insight which we hope will light a spark in your own creative process. Edwards has been the executive director of NEFA since 2014. Prior to that, she was The International Festival of Arts & Ideas director of programming and served a three-year term as the Artistic Director of the Time-Based Art Festival at the Portland Institute for Contemporary Art. Previously, she served as the artistic director of Dance Theater Workshop in NYC, where she worked for a decade. We are thrilled to have her speak at the Creative Resources Conference.

This is one amazing event you won’t want to miss! Attendees can purchase tickets to spend the whole day with us or to pop in just for the keynote and lunch. Get your tickets today!
