So, You Want to be a Professional

Part of Mandurah Arts Festival, 6 September – 6 October 2024

Develop your skills as a professional in the art world at this workshop by international artist Lori Putnam.

About the Event
Artists have a bad reputation in the business world. And, for the most part, that is not altogether incorrect!

Lori Putnam (USA) is a renowned international artist, whose experience as a business owner prior to her fine art career has helped her to dispel the myth that she does little more than sleep late and paint pretty pictures.

This two-hour presentation and Q&A provide invaluable advice on developing your business practice as an artist, covering topics including:

• Three things you can start doing today that will improve your professional reputation
• Marketing is NOT an ugly word, if you learn to do it the right way
• Social media, using the power for good
• Organisation is not your enemy
• Don’t just show up; make a good showing
