As stated in our mission, Artist Trust serves as a professional information resource for artists. To accomplish this, Artist Trust offers a variety of free workshops to assist artists in their professional development. Our workshops are conducted throughout the year and across Washington State and include topics such as Grant Writing for Artists and Moving Forward: Resources for Artists.

Please check here regularly for upcoming workshops or subscribe to our free enewsletter, (re)Source, to be notified when new workshops are scheduled.
