This past Sunday (January 15th) I taught a new workshop that I developed for Pro Arts Jersey City in Jersey City, NJ. This workshop was part of their Artist Career Development Weekend. On Saturday, Pro Arts NJ had a portfolio review, and Sunday was the workshop.
What I loved the most about this workshop was that it included a practical component. For the first half of the day, I lectured to artists on how to promote their work online. After lunch, the participants had to come up with a marketing plan for a real or imagined project or event. I was able to give specific feedback, suggestions, and just plain old encouragement – which you know I love to do!
The workshop was a lot of fun, and Pro Arts is interested in having me back to teach. How cool is that? Yay!
