ARTIST TRAINING SERIES

SECURING GALLERY REPRESENTATION

This three-module course is designed for you, the artist. Each year, galleries receive submissions from more artists than they could ever hope to represent. With so many artists seeking representation, Shanan saw the need to take what she knows about transitioning into the professional art world and share it with artists. This series focuses on how you can make your passion your profession, while at the same time guarding your creativity.

Recorded live with a limited number of attendees and various guest speakers, each module consists of four sessions with a Question & Answer portion. Once the live portions are completed, the modules will be available for DIY instruction and implementation. Enrollment in any of the modules gives you the opportunity to join a private Facebook community with other artists like yourself to encourage support and networking. Worksheets for personal analysis and planning are available for download.
