Sandra Tayler of the Tayler family of webcartoonists is teaching two online classes in May.
Running a Successful Crowdfunded Project on Wednesday May 17, 6-8pm MDT.Whether your planned project is small or dramatic in scope, you can plan for it and set it up in ways that, yes optimize for bringing in the funds you need, but also help you build a good working relationship with your backers, create a sustainable workflow for fulfillment, and establish a long-term strategy for creative success. Join Sandra Tayler for 90 minutes of lecture and 30 minutes of group discussion on the stages of running a crowdfunded project, best practices for each stage and ways you can set yourself up for physical, emotional, and creative sustainability with the project you have planned. Succeeding at crowdfunding is not just measured in dollars.
Building Creative Community on Wednesday May 31, 6-8pm MDTCreative people who have communities thrive better, but how do you go about finding or building one? Whether you want to form a knitting circle at your local cafe, a writer's group in your home, or an online interdisciplinary Discord community, there are some principles and practices that will help your community to thrive. Come learn how you can set up a brand new community, join one that exists, rescue one that is faltering, or even repair one that has been broken. This class will have an emphasis on small-scale community building for creative people who want support with their own work and to support the work of others.
