Beaufort County Community College will offer a free small-business workshop on Tuesday, April 9, in the Ocracoke Community Center.
The day will be in three parts, said Jack Dugan, BCCC Small Business Center director.
From 9 a.m. to noon will be “Growing Your Small Business with Canva.” While some may already use Canva, this workshop will reveal much more to this online graphics program, Dugan said.

Lunch for all attendees is included and will be from noon to 1 p.m.
The chance to win $1,500 will be included in the afternoon workshop, “Small Business Pitch Contest” from 1 to 3 p.m. The pitches are to be about Ocracoke businesses, which can be an expanded aspect of an existing business or a new business, and it is open only to Ocracoke residents or businesses.
