The BCBE is a day-long event that provides creative individuals and businesses a “one-stop” opportunity to learn and gain awareness of the various services and programs that can help them to stabilize their creative businesses and plan for the future. Workshops are lead by experts in the fields of marketing, personal and business finance, media relations, music and film production, and public art.

 

In response to growing demand for the program, participants may now register for workshops online at www.regonline.com/BCBE beginning Friday, February 15. Participants may choose to attend up to three workshops out of more than 40 offerings. Online registration fee is $5. Participants are strongly encouraged to register in advance of arriving at the Expo on March 8.

 

Exhibitors will be located in the Atrium of the Webb Building; participants  wishing only to visit the exhibition area do not need to register.
