Business information and advice for visual art, craft and design practioners..

artistcareer is an independent, non-commercial website that offers high quality resources and information to support professional and business skills development for artists.

artistcareer.com.au is a joint initiative of the Australia Business Arts Foundation (AbaF) and the National Association for the Visual Arts (NAVA).

It is first port of call for artists who seek information and advice on professional and business development
provide a pathway to current and quality information, advice and services tailored to the needs of artists
help artists obtain up-to-date information and advice quickly and efficiently
improve access to professional development, by giving artists more opportunities to learn and acquire information at times that suit them and in ways relevant to their art practice
create a central communication point for artists and establish a community of providers that support them; and encourage debate about innovative methods in art practice and skill development
Our focus is on information and non-accredited learning that supports the ongoing development of artists’ careers and businesses. All web links selected for inclusion must be relevant both to the visual arts, craft and design, and to meeting artists’ ongoing development needs.

The site does not create content that is already offered by organisations. Rather, it acts as a hub and clearinghouse, adding value to existing websites by helping publicise the information and training opportunities they offer.
