Independent Creatives Program

 

Calling all Atlanta Independent Creatives!

If you’re an Atlanta designer who also identifies as a freelancer, entrepreneur, business owner, contractor, or solopreneur—this group is for you. Working for yourself comes with a unique set of freedoms, responsibilities, joys and worries. What is often common is the feeling that you’re on your own without the built in community that working on an established team can provide. The Independent Creatives community is here to provide a remedy to that!

Right now, we’re building the groundwork for how this community will interact and support each other, so it’s an amazing time to join us to make sure your voice is heard. Use the link below to start the process to join our Slack community where you’ll find spaces to engage around common topics like:

  • FinanceFigure out what the heck do I charge? How do I find health insurance? Will we ever retire? Any questions or finance topics go here.
  • ResourcesShare resources and helpful websites.
  • CritiqueRequest criticism on a design, photography, or illustration piece.
  • AdviceAsk questions and discuss difficult situations in freelancing and business development.
  • EventsShare sign-up links and/or coordinate days to co-work with other freelancers.
  • Share Jobs – A place to share jobs or request help from creatives with other skills.

Together in Slack, we’ll build out the programming that meets the needs YOU identify. We’re excited to meet you and be in community on this entrepreneur journey! NOTE: You will need to be logged into a valid Google account in order to complete this form.
