Artist as an Entrepreneur Institute Returns to South Florida
A series of full-day sessions to be offered on four Saturdays, starting June 4, 2011 at ArtServe Inc., 1350 East Sunrise Boulevard, Fort Lauderdale

Broward Cultural Division, The Community Partnership for Arts and Culture (CPAC), and ArtServe, Inc. announce The Artist as an Entrepreneur Institute (AEI) for South Florida artists to be presented on four Saturdays in June 2011, at ArtServe, Inc., 1350 East Sunrise Blvd. in Fort Lauderdale.

The AEI is an artist-focused course of study designed to assist individual artists of all disciplines (visual, musicians, writers, media, theater, performing arts) by cultivating and advancing their business skills, and is designed at strengthening their operating infrastructure and expanding their businesses. To date, 250 South Florida artists have graduated from the Institute. AEI will be offered as 18 classes convening during full-day sessions (9:00 am – 6:00 pm) on June 4, 11 & 18, and a Business Plan Clinic and Workshop on June 25, 2011 (9:00 am – 2:00 pm).

Registrants will receive an AEI course book, an indispensable resource for artists. Developed by CPAC, the course book features exercises and readings to prepare for each session, and is tailored to the specific needs of artist entrepreneurs.

The Business Plan Clinic guides participants through preparation of a simple business plan, an essential tool for any artist. In addition, participants will learn how to work effectively with lenders to obtain financial support through the Artist Micro Credit Program, a community-based revolving loan program, designed to assist resident Broward County practicing professional and emerging artists.

Designed to help artists operate in the marketplace more successfully, the AEI course curriculum covers all aspects of developing an artistic business. It helps artists identify and develop their personal brand, develop strategies for communicating with target markets, raise capital and identify a variety of tools for protecting one’s work legally. “Taking the AEI course was the best thing I could have done for my art career, and esteem as an artist, says AEI graduate Liora Davis. “I can’t recommend it highly enough.”

AEI is led by a premier faculty composed of leading business practitioners and artists familiar with arts and culture from the South Florida region. Faculty members instruct artists through a series of lectures, panels and discussions.

“Art works” is a declaration that with two million full-time artists and 5.7 million arts-related jobs in this country, arts jobs are real jobs that are part of the real economy. Art workers pay taxes, and art contributes to economic growth, neighborhood revitalization, and the livability of American towns and cities.” Chairman, National Endowment for the Arts, Rocco Landesman.

Participation costs $100 and includes light refreshments and free parking. Click HERE to register online or contact Broward Cultural Division’s Grants Management Specialist Adriane Clarke, at 954-357-7530 for more information.

Press Release: Miami Art Museum and Miami Dade College InterAmerican Campus Form Collaboration

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Miami Art Museum and Miami Dade College InterAmerican Campus Form Collaboration
to Bring More Meaningful Art Opportunities to Student Body

Partnership Supported by MetLife Foundation Museum and Community Connections Grant

MIAMI – February 28, 2011 – Miami Art Museum and Miami Dade College’s (MDC) InterAmerican Campus will collaborate on a project that will create a unique bridge between the world of academia and the arts. Centered around Miami Art Museum’s upcoming Rivane Neuenschwander: A Day Like Any Other exhibition, the partnership will increase access and arts opportunities for Miami Dade College students, both on campus and at the Museum. The collaboration is made possible with support from MetLife Foundation Museum and Community Connections grant.

This partnership was formed to enhance the Miami Dade College, InterAmerican Campus Arts Institute and to provide Miami Dade College students with special access to Miami Art Museum and Brazilian artist Rivane Neuenschwander. This partnership will create an on-campus satellite exhibition of Neuenschwander’s video, Quarta-Feira de Cinzas/Epilogue (Ash Wednesday/Epilogue), 2006, bring the artist to the InterAmerican Campus to lecture and speak with art students, introduce students to the arts as a professional career opportunity, and enhance art activities at InterAmerican Campus. Miami Art Museum will also host all Miami Dade College students for a special college night at the Museum.

“The summer collaboration between the Museum and MDC InterAmerican Campus will give our students a unique opportunity to meet the visiting artist, Rivane Neuenschwander, enjoy more art experiences by attending many of the activities at the campus and MAM, bring an awareness of career opportunities in the world of art, and most importantly, broaden their vision and appreciation of modern and contemporary art,” said Michaela Tomova, Chairperson of Communication, Arts & Philosophy Department at the MDC, InterAmerican Campus. “We all look forward to the summer art activities which will bring Miami Art Museum to our students and community.”

Only eight grants were awarded to museums for imaginative exhibitions and educational public programming that extend their reach in diverse communities, making art part of people’s lives. Miami Dade College has over 170,000 students overall and is recognized for meeting the multiple and unique needs of Miami’s diverse population.

“MetLife Foundation has long understood that the arts and art education play vital roles in progressive communities and are particularly important in promoting community cohesiveness within diverse populations,” said MAM Director Thom Collins, “While this initial program focuses on the InterAmerican Campus, just three miles from the Miami Art Museum, our hope is that this partnership will pave the way for other vital, long-term collaborations.”

Miami Art Museum’s collection and artistic focus reflect the diverse population of its region, and its wide-ranging and powerful educational outreach programming serves more than 30,000 annually. Miami Art Museum is always free for students, and docent-guided tours are provided to college and university groups, free of charge.
