1Berkshire Creative Resource Conference, Nov. 12

This exciting, inaugural conference is a day-long program that will connect over 100 regional artists and creative entrepreneurs to services, resources, and business experts. Six panels will give attendees an opportunity to dive deep into issues such as finding the right creative partners and collaborators, cultivating buyers and investors, using images and stories to reach audiences, utilizing creative space, budgeting for growth, and managing legal and financial obstacles. The conference will also offer three hands-on workshops where attendees can learn about grant writing, auditioning, and developing a visual identity from industry professionals.

Additionally, 1Berkshire is thrilled to welcome Matt Stinchcomb as the afternoon’s keynote speaker. Matt, a longtime employee of Etsy.com, is now Executive Director at Etsy.org. Etsy is known to many artists and consumers as one of the first digital marketplaces for unique, handmade goods. After nearly ten years with the company he shifted gears to found Etsy.org, a nonprofit organization building entrepreneurial education programs that foster the human capacity, wisdom, insights, and community needed to create regenerative businesses.
