    Did the May floods in Nashville give you a wake-up call?

    Can your career sustain the losses of a flood, studio fire, tornado, or burst water line?

    Did you know most homeowner's insurance does not cover losses or liability for your art business?

    Do you know how to minimize losses and get help after an emergency?

    This workshop will help you get started in protecting your career from losses from both natural disasters and individual emergencies with preparedness steps that take little time and money. An insurance expert will demystify the topic of business insurance and answer questions.  Kim Brooks of Finer Things Gallery will share insights gained from the flood which inundated her husband Rusty Wolfe's studio and put several feet of water in their home.  Craig Nutt, an artist and Director of Programs for CERF+ (Craft Emergency Relief Fund + Artists' Emergency Resources) will lead the session and talk about emergency resources available to artists.

    Parking behind Lindsley Hall or in front of the Metro Office Building. (Participants: bring proof of ID for security.)  For more information, to register or for directions call (615) 743-3055. Attendance is limited to 25 participants. 

    Sponsored by Metro Nashville Arts Commission, Arts & Business Council of Greater Nashville, Tennessee Association of Craft Artists, and CERF+ (Craft Emergency Relief Fund + Artists' Emergency Resources).  With support from Windgate Charitable Foundation, Nathan Cummings Foundation and the Joan Mitchell Foundation.
