The Arts Business Institute is an educational non profit that partners with regional art guilds, educational institutions and development organizations through the United States and Canada to produce business education workshops for artists in all stages of their careers.

Arts Business Institute workshops are designed to provide each individual artist with a step-by-step plan for success. Unlike other small business workshops, every ABI workshop provides artists with specific business tools unique to the needs of artists and their creative minds.
