Resources

In 2018, we conducted a survey of Now Be Here artists to gauge interest in programming and community conversations. The resources listed below address some of the most frequently cited areas of concern. Each area prioritizes free resources. Resources that can only be accessed with a fee but could deeply help your practice are listed, some at a discounted rate offered specifically to Now Be Here artists.

Money Management

Tracking your income and expenses is another aspect of running a studio that can take a lot of time and can run counter to the creative process. I’m a big fan of programs that save time and automate tasks that I would rather not do.
