This is a 4-part series held THURSDAYS, DECEMBER 10 + 17, 2026 and FRIDAYS, JANUARY 8 + 15, 2027. Artists are welcome to attend all or select sessions.
Over the course of four sessions led by Akeem Davis + Amy Smith, this workshop will demystify concepts and introduce fundamental financial tools to help participants—including those who “hate thinking about money”—make informed financial decisions for their long-term futures. Participants will leave empowered to make prudent financial decisions, with an abundance mindset.
SESSION 1: Our relationship with money, and setting financial goals.
SESSION 2: How to value one’s time to build toward savings and retirement.
SESSION 3: Budgeting for your life and credit/debt management.
SESSION 4: An intro to investing, with an eye toward handling the unexpected and long-term planning.
This workshop is suitable for artists of all disciplines, at any point in their career, who are interested in learning or reviewing basic concepts of personal finances. 40 participants max.
Assets for Artists workshops are open to artists in MA, CT, RI, and ME. As part of the Arts Action Consortium Boston artists receive priority access to all A4A workshops.
