Thursday 20 June 2024 from 6pm to 8pm

A career in the creative industries will very often involve at least one foray into freelancing, whether we like it or not.

Everyone from curious hobbyists to regular employees will probably need to understand the basics, not to mention those who have deliberately chosen the freelance life.

This workshop - The Freelance Five - is a fast, fun, and practical presentation specifically designed for creative practitioners and arts professionals with absolutely no business skills, to help them get the five most important elements of creative freelancing right. It’s a workshop designed by creatives for creatives and facilitated by those who have lived the life and have stories to share.

  • Who is presenting?

Brooke Scobie who lives on Darkinjung land as a queer First Nations single mum, writer, podcaster, business mentor, and dedicated artist manager. With over 15 years working in the community services sector and a half-decade within the arts, Brooke seamlessly marries their passion for creative expression with a profound understanding of the needs of community. They have been published widely as a poet and writer, clinching 2nd place in the 2020 Judith Wright Poetry Prize.

We’re a social enterprise based in Sydney, dedicated to educating creative people and arts organisations about business skills. We help through sharing practical knowledge in a fun and irreverent way, and everything we do is designed to help creatives to feel more confident and comfortable about the entrepreneurial aspects of their creative practice. We believe that a bit of naughtiness, tempered with a kind heart and a big dose of professionalism, is the key to helping creative people understand the boring basics of business.
