Buffalo State College is proud to announce the Entrepreneurship in the Arts 2021. This outstanding program last ran in 2019. Founded by Ben Christy, the late dean of the School of Arts and Humanities, and Susan McCartney, director of the Small Business Development Center, the program will resume this month and will run for four consecutive Wednesday evenings in Rockwell Hall 204, beginning Wednesday, September 22. 

The training has pivoted to a strong emphasis on the tools and strategies for deploying e-commerce. The e-commerce transition was significantly affected by the pandemic and is anticipated to be an essential practice for all businesses moving forward. Business planning and financial analysis will continue as core topics. Copyright management—an issue of particular importance to nearly all art-related businesses—will be discussed, along with the various options for legally setting up one’s business.

The fee for the program is $75. Buffalo State students are eligible for a scholarship. For more information about registering for the program or securing a scholarship, please contact Susan McCartney. Space is limited.
