Assets for Artists is a matched savings account program offering grant funds of up to $2,000 and workshops and personal training to improve entrepreneurial artists' financial and professional/business skills.
By meeting a savings goal and completing the required training, participating artists can earn up to $2,000 as a match for their own savings, providing "working capital" to implement their arts business plan.
Free training includes a dynamic single-session "bootcamp" on personal finance for artists with Esther Robinson of
ArtHome, followed by enrollment in the International Institute of New England's
"Bridges to Business" Program, providing artist-focused business planning classes and additional 1-on-1 technical assistance.
