About the event
Stephanie Pruitt is a working artist (poetry & social practice) and ARTrepreneurial expert. In addition to numerous awards, magazines, and anthologies, her literary work can be found in vending machines, on walls, in concrete at a baseball stadium, and as large-scale, multi-sensory/social experiences.
As founder and Chief Strategist of Mind Your Creative Business, Stephanie works to solve the art + business equation. She applies her expertise in marketing and organizational innovation to help companies and institutions solve problems and mine opportunities through fine art. The TEDx speaker also provides professional development services to individual artists and the organizations serving them in order to banish starving artist syndrome.
Pruitt earned a bachelor of business administration in marketing from MTSU, and a master of fine arts in creative writing from Vanderbilt. Over the past two decades, she has managed an art gallery, social science research center, and owned a publishing & talent booking firm, and event planning company. Most recently, Pruitt has taught or served as an artist in residence at the Sewanee (University of the South) School of Letters & Young Writers Conference, The Entrepreneur Center, Vanderbilt University, and as a visiting workshop leader in over one hundred community spaces. When not traveling as a speaker and facilitator, she can most often be found in her Nashville home with her husband, Al, and soon to fly the coop daughter, Nia, along with their two 70lb lap dogs.
