As artists, our rates should reflect not only the value of our labor and creativity, but the power of our contributions epic - economic, cultural, and civic. Join the ARTPOWER team - janera solomon and Jerome Barnes, together with Kavya Vaghul, co-founder and Chief Product Officer of The Living Wage Institute, for a conversation on how understanding living-wage data strengthens our financial power.
Together, we’ll explore how moving beyond survival thinking and towards abundance opens space for clarity, confidence, and long-term sustainability - and how tools like tortoise support artists in building well-resourced, expansive creative lives.
