Arts Finance Empowerment Camp Series 2: Financial Management & Strategy
The Arts Finance Empowerment Camp is an interactive cohort learning program for nonprofit arts administrators and board members who want to build their financial management skills.

Attendance in Series 1 is not a required prerequisite for Series 2 for those who already have an understanding of Profit & Loss, Budget vs. Actuals, Balance Sheet, and Cash Flow.
