A graphic announcing "What Art School Didn't Teach You: A Crash Course in Artist Business Best Practices" for the Nib and Ink Fest 2025 on May 3rd, 2025 at 11:30AM EST on Zoom featuring panelist Yuki Clarke. The panel description reads, "Art schools teach a lot about art, but sometimes don't teach how to make it into a career. Join this crash course to learn how to make your art work for you with basic lessons and tips on finances, building a company and brand, business best practices, and how to market yourself and your work, along with resources on how to learn more! This is a great workshop for recent grads, cartoonists early in their career, or those who need a refresher." An anthropomorphic inkwell and an anthropomorphic both holding comic pages decorate the graphic.
