Financial Independence for Creatives

Monday December 9, 2024 11:00am - 12:30pm PST

Join us for a LIVE podcast recording of the Financial Independence Club, a collaboration between LoboLux Design and Artistic Finance. A panel of lighting industry folx will bridge the gap between creatives and finance with collective education. They will discuss dismantling the "Starving Artist" narrative, improving Financial IQ, empowering confidence in personal financial decisions, and increasing financial wellness for everyone.

This will be a LIVE recording of the Artistic Finance podcast. We will take questions and comments from the audience. This will be a highly inclusive and interactive discussion. Attendees are encouraged to participate with questions and comments.

The FI Club is hosted by Amy D Lux, principal of LoboLux and Treasurer of international membership Women In Lighting and Design, and Ethan Steimel, lighting designer, and founder of Artistic Finance. Our vision is 'Financial Literacy for Creatives' with a mission to create a transparent forum and inclusive community to propel creative workers into financial security. The Financial Independence Club intends to help you learn how to increase your Financial IQ in manageable and accessible ways. It IS possible, and EVERYONE deserves prosperity. Join Us!
