Build a Creative Life That Pays: The Art Career Blueprint That AI Can’t Replace

Sat, Jun 6, 4:30 PM

From Coffee and Art

4.9

If you are an art major, a college student, recently laid off, or quietly wondering what your next move should be, this workshop is for you. In this meetup workshop, you gain access to 20+ years of real classroom experience and practical knowledge about building a stable, fulfilling, and well-paid career in art education. This is not theory or vague inspiration. It is clear guidance on how to teach at public schools, private schools, and the college level, what degrees you actually need, what credentials matter, how hiring works, and how to position yourself to stand out. If you are serious about your future, this is a shortcut. If you are simply curious, it may open a door you did not know was possible. Teaching art is not a backup plan; it is one of the most meaningful and future-secure paths an artist can take. Students need mentors, not algorithms. Schools need leaders who can build programs, inspire confidence, and create a real studio culture. This workshop also breaks down how to expand beyond the classroom through private lessons, selling artwork, online content, crowdfunding, and other art-based income streams. You will walk away with clarity, direction, and a realistic roadmap. For the price of a dinner out, you can gain insight that took two decades to build. Whether you are exploring or fully committed, this is an opportunity worth stepping into.

From Months to Days: How AI Is Rewriting Commercial Production

Fri, Jun 5, 3:15 PM

From Friday Coffee Meetup

Join us for a behind-the-scenes look at how AI is transforming commercial production—and what it takes to build creative systems that actually perform. Jethro Rothe-Kushel is the Founder & CEO of Ritual Ads, a studio using AI to take brands from concept to finished commercial in days—not months—while improving performance through rapid iteration and real-time analytics. After more than 20 years producing major campaigns for brands like Google, Apple, and Amazon, Jethro saw firsthand how slow, expensive, and inefficient traditional production could be. Instead of accepting that model, he built something different. At Ritual Ads, the commercial production process is reimagined end-to-end—using AI to move from storyboard to finished spot in days, not months, while enabling faster iteration, real-time testing, and stronger performance. In this session, Jethro will break down how this approach works in practice, including: * How AI is compressing the timeline of commercial production * Why more iteration leads to better creative outcomes * What a modern “creative + performance” stack actually looks like * Lessons learned building and scaling a system designed for speed, consistency, and results This is a practical, real-world look at how advertising is evolving—and what builders, marketers, creatives, operators, and investors need to understand to stay ahead. *** ### **About the Speaker** Jethro Rothe-Kushel is the Founder & CEO of Ritual Ads, a studio using AI to take brands from concept to finished commercial with speed, precision, and measurable performance. He brings over 20 years of experience across film, television, and advertising, having produced major campaigns for leading brands including Apple, Netflix, American Express, Google, and Amazon. He is a former VP of the Producers Guild of America, representing thousands of top producers nationwide. Earlier in his career, Jethro documented the lives of people experiencing homelessness in Los Angeles—work that contributed to major public funding efforts and long-term housing initiatives. That experience continues to inform his belief in storytelling as a force for real-world change. Today, he leads Ritual Ads at the intersection of AI and storytelling, helping brands move faster while staying authentic and effective. *** **Networking** Come early to connect with fellow founders, technologists, creatives, and community members. Friday Coffee Meetup is as much about the people in the room as it is about the conversation on stage.

Topics will include: * Working with AI agents beyond simple prompting * Rapid product ideation and validation * AI-assisted prototyping workflows * Using OpenClaw from mobile and Discord * Practical lessons learned from real-world experimentation * Where AI workflows are heading next Expect a practical, conversational evening with live demos, Q&A, and plenty of time to connect with others in the LA product and builder community. **Event Details:** **Date:** May 28 📍 Location: Intersections LA, Culver City. 🎟️Ticket: $25 Food & beverage are included.
