The Show
WHAT WE’RE BUILDING
OWNR! is a new national media series helping emerging artists understand how to get hired, get paid, and build sustainable creative careers and income.
Established artists, buyers and industry insiders reveal where opportunities are actually coming from, who controls access, what gets funded and bought, how artists get considered, and how to build more ownership into the opportunities they pursue. Emerging artists then present or perform their work and get real-time feedback in front of a live audience.
Think NPR’s Tiny Desk meets MasterClass, focused on the business of being an artist.
OWNR! gives viewers access to people they usually don’t have access to.
The Artists Who Are Doing It
How they got booked, what changed their careers, and what they wish they knew sooner.
The People With the Budgets
What they’re buying, what they pay for, and what makes an artist get picked.
The Insiders Who Know How It Works
Where opportunities really come from, who makes the decisions, and how artists get considered.
We will bring artists, industry leaders, and a live audience together to film five original episodes during the inaugural Artist Ownership Summit.
