A new hub for artists trying to mix their creativity with business savvy is holding its annual Marketplace tomorrow in Somerville.
Jessica Burko, a mixed-media artist, photographer and founder and director of Boston Handmade, is holding the event from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. tomorrow in Union Square.
"Our group exists to support creative entrepreneurs in their microbusinesses," said Burko, 40, of Roslindale. "When you go to art school, you don't necessarily get any business training. So our group is all about filling that gap."
Boston Handmade also offers workshops on topics such as how to use social media to market your business.
"I really wanted to meet a group of fellow artists and crafts people like that to bounce ideas off of," said Dana Garczewski, an illustrator whose studio, The Patterned Peacock, is in Watertown.
Garczewski, 36, sees events like the Boston Handmade Marketplace as a chance to show people the value of buying goods handmade locally.
"It's an opportunity to get to know the artists in your own backyard," she said, "and experience art and crafts in a very hands-on way."
