Getting Your Story Out There: December 8, 9:30-11:30 a.m.
“Publicity is recognition by someone other than the artist that there is a unique story to be told," writes Mary Petzak, editor of "Singing Your Own Praises." Trouble is, most of us artists and craftspeople don't know our story. We're not sure why the work we make is special, or even why we love to make it so much. Yet this "inside story" is the engine that drives all of your creative efforts. Once you can articulate it, you'll find it will help you create an artist statement, a mission statement, a press release or even an exhibition proposal. This workshop will explore ways to find the passionate story behind your work, and ways it connects to popular "story hooks" to get the attention of the media, your audience, even your own heart.
Shoestring Personal Branding Online for Artists: December 8, 1-3 p.m.
Use LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter, blogging, YouTube and other online, FREE social media tools to advance your career and get yourself seen online. You'll learn how to invest no money and about one hour a day in marketing yourself using these tools.
