Benefits
Our Assistance Program is designed to assist artists and related fields with the inevitable complexities and professional challenges that arise in the course of a dynamic practice. Whether it is project management, legal advice, manufacturing expertise, public relations, software, or business support, we can help connect you with the right professional to support your growth and solve your challenges.
Expanding personal and professional networks fosters community, builds trust, and breaks down barriers to access to the arts. This is true for an emerging artist who is confused by a legal question, as well as for an emerging legal professional who has just moved to San Antonio and wants to get involved in the city’s culture.
