Workshop Description

The craft of writing an artist statement is a crucial tool in framing and presenting your artwork that guides a range of possible viewers. While many artists hope their work speaks for itself, the well-written artist’s statement creates an important connection between you and those viewers that is fundamentally important in galleries as well as for exhibition proposals, grant and residency applications, and job opportunities.
