SURVEY

Statewide Business Development Program

What is Ku Arts Statewide Business Development Program?

Turning your art practice into a sustainable career requires a series of practical business management skills. For many artists this can be overwhelming and time consuming. But with the right supports and tools in place any artist can learn to run the business side of their practice.

In 2027, Ku Arts will develop a series of accessible business tools & templates for artists, and deliver hands-on workshops for the Statewide Business Development Program. 

❋ Who will the program support?

Independent Aboriginal artists, emerging artist-led groups, and cultural hubs across South Australia - bringing the gap for those who do not access centres.

❋ What kind of tools & templates?

From budgeting and invoicing to cataloguing and marketing… the program will cover the business of being an artist.

Why take the survey?

This is your opportunity to tell Ku Arts what kind of arts business tools, templates, workshops or support you are looking for. Your responses will directly shape the program. Plus you’ll go into the draw to WIN one of three art supplies vouchers to spend at Art to Art valued at $100 each.

The survey may take between 5 - 10 minutes to complete.
