Never make the assumption that an artist is practicing what amounts to be a hobby! That's what this episodes guest Melanie Monique Rose might experience were it not for her wise business choices in which making a fair and equitable, living wage is a non-negotiable, or at the very least, on her terms.
Ensuring artists receive a decent wage is crucial for the sustainability of creative industries and the well-being of those who contribute to our cultural landscape. Fair compensation not only recognizes the skill and labor that go into artistic work but also allows artists to focus on their craft without the constant stress of financial insecurity.
