Four years ago, I created a series of short videos for use in my class Foundations of Arts Entrepreneurship. I’m no longer teaching the course (and the videos themselves admittedly could use some updating) but for those of you looking for a primer on arts entrepreneurship or some supplemental material for use in your own classes, I’m making these available to the public by posting one video a week for the next fifteen weeks.

In this first video, I discuss definitions of “entrepreneurship” and of “arts entrepreneurship” and map the habits of mind that can support the entrepreneurial process.

The quote from Ann Bogart can be found in her excellent book and then, you act, which had been required reading for an earlier version of this corse.
