Provincetown Commons and the Community Development Partnership are pleased to announce the 2025 Creative Development Series. Over the course of six weeks, the two organizations will offer six free courses to individuals seeking to enhance the business side of their creative practice. This year, the workshops directly stem from the results of a community survey that asked what needs folks want to focus on now. The classes will all have a “learn, then do” component to them. Participants will hear from artists and creative workers, and each session will have time devoted to students practicing the work themselves. All courses are free; registration is recommended.

All Things Canva

Come learn how to use the free version of Canva, an online tool for building marketing materials. Luna eve will show participants how to build posts for various social media platforms, create marketing materials, and add media to websites. Participants will be tasked with creating an artist biography page with photo and QR code to their website/social media that can be used over and over again.
