The South Carolina Arts Commission and Artists U are partners to offer ongoing training for S.C. artists.

Headquartered in Philadelphia, Artists U is a grassroots planning and professional development program run by and for artists. Artists U training is designed to push artists to build lives that are balanced, productive, and sustainable.
The Artists U Weekend Intensive is offered around the state at various locations. Participants learn how to build a balanced, sustainable life by reconnecting with values, building community and slaying the two demons of the artist’s life: time and money. Workshop leaders are South Carolina artists who have completed Artists U training.
Examples of additional training offered by AU:
- Introduction to Artists U
- Artists U Alumni Gatherings
- Artist Mission Statement Workshop
- Social Media as Community

Artists U/South Carolina is funded by the South Carolina Arts Commission as part of the S.C. Artists’ Ventures Initiative.
