SUMMARY:Co-Creative Sessions: Matt Mignanelli\, Artist
DESCRIPTION:Matt Mignanelli’s paintings are composed of gradated fields of blue\, gestural dissections\, and geometric forms inspired by light\, shadow\, and architectural elements. Informed by the urban landscape and vistas from the natural world these works examine the duality of modern life with emotional complexity. Mignanelli’s process combines incredibly detailed\, methodical hand-painting\, with references to utilitarian painting applications in municipal and industrial contexts\, abutted by fields of aqueous and luminescent color. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEqually important to Mignanelli’s practice is the examination of the potential and power of the monochrome. In particular\, his work embraces a deep saturation of the color blue. While at first glance the paintings appear transporting\, with stacks of brick-like forms set against the intense color of the enamel house paint\, further inspection reveals a thoughtful engagement with light and shadow\, depth and density\, and spatial perception. Through the use of enamel and the color blue which appears on mailboxes\, these functional uses of paint within the urban environment are continually referenced. Freely exploring permutations of form and recording the element of chance associated with my freehand process in organically accumulated splashes and drips of paint on the painting’s surface\, brings forth a sense of freedom. The spontaneity that emerges makes the paintings feel alive. \n\n\n\nCreating paintings within a strict set of parameters has defined Mignanelli’s project\, and is a pursuit of purity through thought and a constant evaluation of space and emotion. The works aspire to continue that investigation and push the understanding of what it means to visualize feelings in paint. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCo-Creative Sessions is a free and accessible online series geared to enrich\, educate and connect creatives through a series of workshops and training sessions. New Bedford is the home of artists\, creatives\, change makers\, designers\, entrepreneurs and community enthusiasts and the Co-Creative Session embraces the pulse that makes New Bedford so unique while expanding our knowledge and connections! \n\n\n\nWith great thanks\, this program is funded and supported by the Mass Cultural Council\, New Bedford Economic Development Council and NB Creative. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nRSVP here

SUMMARY:Co-Creative Sessions: Passion to Profit: ARTepreneurs
DESCRIPTION:with Samia Walker \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nArtists see possibilities everywhere. Monetizing talent\, however\, is a daunting task for an artist. At EforAll \, we recognize that creating a sustainable life in the arts is complicated\, that there is no singular approach to building a creative enterprise\, that it doesn’t happen quickly\, and that success has its roots in relationship-building. ARTrepreneurs are leaders in the creative economy. Their innovation powers the engine of growth and community vitality. ARTrepreneurs produce and distribute goods and services that generate jobs\, revenue\, and quality of life. Our mission is to ensure creatives have the knowledge and practical skills to have sustainable careers in our changing economic times. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCo-Creative Sessions is a free and accessible online series geared to enrich\, educate and connect creatives through a series of workshops and training sessions. New Bedford is the home of artists\, creatives\, change makers\, designers\, entrepreneurs and community enthusiasts and the Co-Creative Session embraces the pulse that makes New Bedford so unique while expanding our knowledge and connections! \n\n\n\nWith great thanks\, this program is funded and supported by the Mass Cultural Council\, New Bedford Economic Development Council and NB Creative. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nReserve a Spot

SUMMARY:Co-Creative Sessions: Scott Sullivan Photography
DESCRIPTION:In this workshop\, we we will discuss the various components associated with photography & producing high quality composition & work. \n\n\n\n\n\nChange of date: Now November 16\, 2022 \n\n\n\nThis workshop is designed to layout and discuss the concepts of photography.

If they are a pro surfer or snowboarder there is a good chance Scott has shot them shooting & working with such figures as Dave Rastovich\, John John Florence\, Travis Rice\, Bjorn Leins\, & Nicolus Mueller to name a few. However\, Scotts real passion is working with others helping them discover their innate & inner artist within.  \n\n\n\nScott is the real deal\, a beautiful person inside and out and we hope you join and enjoy all that he has to offer.  \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCo-Creative Sessions is a free and accessible online series geared to enrich\, educate and connect creatives through a series of workshops and training sessions.

SUMMARY:Co-Creative Sessions: Pay Equity and Justice for Freelancers Workshop
DESCRIPTION:What hourly pay provided to a freelancer amounts to minimum wage for an employee\, a living wage or a reasonable professional wage? \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhile it is hard to be precise it is possible to create reasonable estimates. We believe that funders\, freelancers and the organizations that hire them have a role to play in creating equity and justice in freelancer pay.  \n\n\n\nThis workshop is for freelancers\, organizations that hire them and funders who fund freelance pay. It will include discussions of the compensation research\, explanations of the various costs freelancers are responsible for that employers cover for wage earners and calculations of the real value of freelance pay when freelance costs for taxes and other benefits are taken into account. It will also cover the rules for classifying a position as freelance or employee. A calculator for translating freelance hourly wage to hourly wage equivalent will also be provided. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\nThe program will be held on Zoom. You must register in advance.After registering\, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the workshop.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThanks to our generous funders. This program is supported in part by grants from the Co-Creative Sessions\, Rockland Trust Charitable Foundation and the New Bedford\, Middleborough\, Acushnet & Dartmouth Local Cultural Councils\, local agencies which are supported by the Mass Cultural Council\, a state agency. \n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\nRSVP Now\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEric Esteves\, Executive Director\, The Lenny Zakim Fund Eric A philanthropist\, educator\, artist\, community advocate\, and technologist\, Executive Director Eric Esteves previously served as Director of the Social Innovation Fund at The Boston Foundation.
