An introduction to social enterprise: running yourself as a business

Acta Community Theatre is proud to present the sixth session of the Elevate programme: An introduction to social enterprise: running yourself as a business

Elevate is a skills-building programme for socially engaged theatre-makers and artists who are interested in working with a specific community of people. It is designed as a practical, explorative course that we hope builds a lasting creative community. We have a cohort of practitioners signed up for the term, but we also open up some sessions for all to book on to.

what will I do in this workshop?

* You'll really get to grips with what a social enterprise is
* We'll talk you through creating a simple business plan and budget
* We'll look into mapping your journey and creating an action plan to come away with

Whilst this day will be focussed on undertaking this work as a theatre practitioner, we believe other artists will benefit from this too.
