The working world of artists has changed a lot in recent years. In response to this, the HFBK wants to equip its graduate students with knowledge and skills that will help them to achieve a self-confident professional position in the art field. The program is aimed in particular at fine artists and is designed to impart the professional knowledge necessary for the complex requirements of a self-employed artistic activity. The aim is to be able to act in the art field in an informed and self-confident manner and thus to make the transition from studies to professional life smoother.

The free offer - information events, lectures, workshops and consultation appointments - is aimed at students in their final year as well as graduate students (students in the master's program, doctoral candidates and alumni) of the HFBK up to 5 years after their studies.

Due to the corona pandemic, almost all sessions within the framework of the professionalization program at the HFBK Hamburg will be offered online in the summer semester 2020. The events will take place online on the given dates - the workshops with a limited number of participants, so please note the information on prior registration. The links for the respective web conference rooms will be published on the HFBK homepage and on the Instagram account of the HFBK Hamburg (@hfbkhamburg) shortly before the events.
