The Wichita Falls Alliance for Arts and Culture today announces the participants of the 2021 Artist Development Program. The new program will provide financial resources and business development skills to artists and craftspeople in Wichita Falls and the surrounding communities. The 2021 participants represent three area counties: Archer, Clay, and Wichita.
Over the next nine months, these fifteen area artists will hone their skills as artist-entrepreneurs. The Alliance will provide tools to make their creative work available to broader audiences, along with financial resources, business development skills, and workshops on the financial and legal aspects of the business of art.
