Syndicate is a creative environment that bridges gaps between artistry, the realities of the market, and traditional art education. Here artists can build connections, seek guidance on market processes, develop professionally, and share experiences. It’s about transforming part-time passion into a full-time profession, breaking the isolation many can feel. Have strong answers to questions like ‘So what’s your real job?’, ‘But that’s a hobby, right?’, ‘Can you live off that?’, because being an artist is a job, and one where you shouldn’t have to gamble and rely on chance.
Syndicate focuses on practical, real-life-relevant skills and strategies tailored to artist, making them not just participants but integral players in the art world. With both online formats and immersive Creative Council events, Syndicate’s purpose is to provide a comprehensive roadmap for artistic success, with a community-focused environment for continuous support and collaboration.
Creative process based on knowing, not guessing
Syndicate believes in the holistic development of artists, emphasizing technical skills, market-savvy strategies, and personal growth. It fosters an inclusive and supportive community where artists are seen as equal participants in the art market, together with Syndicate itself: the art market is a living space that requires constant exploration, and we are sure we have many things to learn together and from each other. We advocate for a balanced approach that respects academic foundations while embracing modern, innovative methods.
We believe in the format of a Creative Lab, but along with it provide a baseline on which you can always lean in your explorations: to allow you to seek new things in the artistic process, but not to experiment with your career and life. We base our programs on a fundamental approach, but with the modern, changing market and a person at its center.
Next Step – Community
Once a participant of Syndicate events, you are welcome to become a member – to keep on learning, forge connections, and initiate the change you want to see. Becoming one of Syndicate’s members is more than content or contacts, it’s taking part in our vision: To create a new culture of fulfilled artistic professionals.
The SNDCT Community is a network where artists from diverse backgrounds converge to support each other and collaborate. It offers continuous access to workshops, seminars, insider information, and, most importantly, relationships and friendships.
