Connecting the Dots Between Talent and Business
September 15th & 16th, 2026
A 2-day virtual event for creative entrepreneurs.
Are you a creative who…
Wants to charge what their work is truly worth.
Is building a business and wants more freedom to create.
Is struggling to build a brand around themselves and their business.
Knows their art has value, yet struggles to turn that value into consistent income.
Building a sustainable creative business takes a whole lot more than talent.
You’re getting a lot of things right:
You’re creating meaningful work.
You’re showing up consistently.
You’re putting your art into the world and finding opportunities to sell, share, and grow.
But… stability in a creative business doesn’t happen by accident. It requires visibility into your numbers, systems that support your work, and decisions based on clarity — not guesswork.
Maybe right now you…
Feel unsure where your money is really going.
Feeling creatively burnt out.
Wear every hat in your business and don’t know how to scale.
Feel like selling is the hardest part of owning your business.
Feeling like your marketing is cringe, not authentic.
There has got to be a better way!
You dream of finding a way to build clarity and stability in your creative business that’s doable with your hectic schedule, and actually works.
Make confident decisions without overwhelm or constant second-guessing.
Identify which parts of your creative business are supporting stability, and which are creating stress.
Understand what’s actually happening in your finances, not just what you think is happening.
This is exactly what you’ll experience at The Creative Growth Summit!
During The Creative Growth Summit you'll learn how to build clarity without burning out.
Join us for The Creative Growth Summit and learn from artists and experts who understand the realities of building a creative business, with practical strategies for creating more clarity and long-term sustainability.
