5 Ways to Survive....as a Creative Practitioner

Advantage Creative

A series of 3 online workshops for student & early career Creative Practitioners. 

The 5 Ways to Survive… is a concept that recognises the Creative Practitioner holistically, at the centre of their practice, and looks at inter-connected income generation and practice development strategies that can increase financial wellbeing as well as increase life satisfaction more generally.

<blockquote>This survival guide has never felt more relevant than in these unordinary times. With the creative and cultural sector “on the brink of devastation” (CIF 2020 The Projected impact of Covid-19 on the UK Report) - as organisations and individuals try and navigate the new post Covid-19 outbreak landscape.</blockquote>

“The 5 ways” emerged in it’s first iteration many years ago when John Holmes and Cath Ralph played key Cultural Development roles in Stoke on Trent. John Holmes, working for the local authority at a senior level and Cath Ralph, a partner in the City’s regeneration consortium running what was then an independent culture centre and creative industry development organisation (The Burslem School of Art).

The concept starts with the Creative Practitioner in the middle. It seeks to take a holistic understanding and approach to the ways in which they create, sell, teach, share and of course earn. This particular reflective learning approach stood the test of time. It also stood the test of a half year-long funded research programme to challenge, and authenticate the ideas behind the concept.

This series of online workshops is open to students and early career Creative Practitioners. We will introduce concepts through case studies which have been gathered from a cross section of Creative Industries and hear from guest speakers who will provide their insights into some key strategies that have supported them in their work, and continued to do so over many decades, through difficult times and unordinary circumstances. Times like now.Join our series of workshops so that we can share these strategies and insights with you.
