BASA Basics is aimed at arts organisations and individuals wishing to start a for profit or non for profit

organisation. The programme aims to introduce emerging artists to the legal registration options and

processes available in terms of establishing an arts organisation, and further develop arts organisations

BASA Dynamic:

This programme is aimed at registered arts organisations with a basic business model and plan. The

faced with strategic organisational challenges. This programme will challenge their way of thinking in

terms of generating income and creating innovative business models to ensure long-term sustainability.

Furthermore, organisations at this level may be paired up with a business mentor to further assist and

advise the organisations in meeting their strategic goals.

What the BASA Basic Education programme will entail:

Our 6 month long programme is for arts organisations at the start-up level. It will entail a series of

workshops. The skills learnt during these workshops will equip emerging arts organisations to get the

necessary tools to get started.

The first workshop will be looking at understanding legal entities, Governance and Compliance

The second workshop is establishing the vision, mission, basic operational budgeting, resource

evaluation and basic Business Models.

The next workshop will be on proposal writing, business communication and partnership

friendraising.

At the end of the 6 months, we would like to see that you have become registered and a legal entity (if

you are not already registered) and have a workable business model.

If you would like to be considered for the programme, we need to assess the current position of your

organization and what challenges you face going forward to see how you might benefit from the

intensive 6 month long programme.
