ATLANTA - s4story -- The LxVE Collective, in partnership with Lighthaus, announces the launch of LxVE Academy, a summer learning series designed to equip emerging creatives with the skills, mentorship, and industry knowledge needed to build sustainable careers in the arts and creative industries.

The virtual program will take place Saturdays, June 6 through Aug. 29, 2026, at 12 p.m. EDT. Registration is now open at an accessible rate of $99. Additional fees may apply.

"LxVE Academy was created to close the gap between creative passion and real opportunity," said Alfred Coles, Jr., co-founder of The LxVE Collective. "Too many talented creatives lack access to the tools, mentorship, and networks needed to succeed. This program is about changing that by providing a clear, accessible pathway forward."

As more individuals turn to creative and independent career paths in today's evolving economy, programs like LxVE Academy are addressing a growing need for accessible education, business skills, and industry guidance.
