You’ve made the art, launched a website, and now you have to keep track of inventory, sales, show submissions, grant applications… the list doesn’t end!

Artists will leave with a better understanding of where art consultants fit within the art market and practical tools for making their work easier to discover, present, and place.

This workshop is designed to help artists write compelling and concise artist statements for applications, exhibitions, residencies, grants, websites, and other professional opportunities.

Learn what’s available, how to access it, and how to make the library part of your toolkit as a working artist.

Build the skills to approach your next grant application with a stronger plan and a clearer story.

Get practical guidance on when to frame it yourself, when to work with a professional, and how to make framing decisions that support the work without overpowering it.

Learn how to turn an idea into a clear proposal, respond to a call, build a realistic timeline and budget, and show reviewers why you’re the right artist for the project.

Your artist statement should still sound like you. Explore a more creative approach to writing about your work and learn how AI can support the process without taking over your voice.
