Okay, so you got the degree, but now what? Transitioning from art school to the business of arting. (Pt 2)

Hello friends and friends of friends! This week we continue on from last week's episode on what it is to go from art school and into the business of arting. We are joined by Lauren von Gogh who is the Network Programmes Manager at VANSA (Visual Arts Network of South Africa). Lauren shares with us the amazing work that VANSA is doing to support artists in their professional practices, which includes providing business toolkits, tax toolkits and their most recent project on mental health awareness called, ‘Take Care.’ Head over to VANSA’s website dto find out more about this project as well as their other initiatives. We are also thankful to some of our friends who contributed to the episode and gave us their own personal experiences, so big thank you to Lauren Theunissen, Thero Makepe, Papi Konop and Michaela Limberis.
