Tools for the Creative Life
Tools for the Creative Life is a workshop series aimed at providing creatives with connection, new skills, inspirational capital and tools to craft a healthy creative ecosystem. Presented in partnership by the RiNo Art District and Creative Integration Initiative.
Presented by Entertainment Community Fund, this webinar will help you understand what all your health insurance options are, and give you clear, step-by-step guidance on how to get the most affordable coverage. Find out how to estimate variable/sporadic income (important for freelancers and the self-employed!) and see if you’re eligible for free insurance or expanded subsidies to reduce your premiums. Find out how to pick health insurance that makes sense for you and your family. For those who are uninsured, find out how to access lower-cost health care and medications. This is an excellent opportunity for unbiased, comprehensive information.
