Free Workshop: Networking for Creatives
March 24 @ 4:30 pm – 6:30 pm
Arts OutWest in partnership with Creative+Business. Funded by ConnectBusiness.
This in-person workshop is a surprisingly fun event designed to encourage creative people to get to know each other, while acknowledging the horror, and sharing a few tips at the same time. While it’s a vital skill in the creative industries, many practitioners consider networking to be the stuff of nightmares. Networking Tips and Techniques for Creatives combines education with the opportunity to practice in a safe and friendly environment while embracing the discomfort of the whole process and having a laugh.
Tips that will be shared include:
+ Success is before you start – preparing before the event;
+ Mastering the art of the introduction;
+ Overcoming shyness, awkwardness and the urge to run away;
+ Dealing with difficult people;
+ Getting the all-important follow-up right.
You’ll learn how to network in the first half of the session, and practice your skills in the second half.
Ideal For: Curious hobbyists, creative freelancers and businesses, arts organisations.
This event has a capacity to host up to 20 people.
