How to Successfully Get Your Art into Galleries
Are you an established or upcoming artist looking to gain notoriety and success in the art world? Do you wonder how to start selling your art… or sell more of your art? Would you like to see your work in galleries and get inspired to commit more time to your art?
If you answered heck, yes! to those questions, join this group seminar—featuring Bluerock Gallery owner Karen Gimbel and professional artist Doug Swinton—to learn how you can attain gallery representation. Find out what you need to do before you start hiking down the gallery trail. We will help you map out the prep work—pricing your work, website development, framing practices, etc… The discussion will include many different areas, all of which come together to create a successful gallery artist.
Bring all your questions and queries to the table and we will have an open discussion on what does (and doesn’t!) work and how established artists have achieved success.
