Shared Wealth, Shared Futures: A Budgeting Workshop

Build fundamental financial skills and knowledges that artists can practically apply directly to their working practices.

Date Wednesday 24 April 2024

Time 3pm - 5:30pm

Location LCF Stratford, Room 423

Overview

Are you an artist, organiser, or part of a community group or small project and are interested in solidarity economy approaches to finance and anti-oppressive ways to reframe our relationship to money? 

Register this financial literacy workshop with Sally Moussawi to build fundamental financial skills and knowledges that artists can practically apply directly to their working practices, which also service and act in accordance with our personal values and goals.

We will learn about:
        • The different barriers to financial literacy 
        • How to read and write budgets as a site of setting intentions 
        • How to read and write a cashflow forecast – both these financial documents are often a pre-requisite to accessing funding 

No experience necessary! People of all levels of comfort with finances are welcome to participate. This workshop will be especially beneficial for those structurally under-served (across race, gender, accessibility and migration), with number-phobias and wounds around [not having] money.
