CCI provides entrepreneurial training for individual artists and cultural workers in all disciplines  to enhance their business knowledge and career prospects. CCI's signature Business of Art training program has been presented to artists throughout California since 2002.

We also partner with local organizations, foundations, art schools, and communities throughout California to create and deliver customized training programs designed to meet the needs of their individual artist communities.
