Exhibition Proposals
Having a solo exhibition or curating a group show is a mutual goal among most artists we have talked to. But then what? How do you make that happen?
We believe that artists can create their own opportunities. One thing you can do is to put together a proposal and pitch your solo or group show. What does a well written proposal look like? What are the elements that make up a proposal? Where do I send my proposal? How do I stay organized during this process?

Do you have a hard time meeting new people? Or networking while at art openings? The pandemic has definitely helped us isolate more and socialize less, which hasn’t helped our anxieties around meeting new people.

What is the right etiquette at art openings? Sending emails? Making introductions? Do you send out thank you notes?
