WTSP 2016 – Presenting Yourself: Send Me Your Headshot, Short Bio, and Artist’s Statement

Venue: 1131 Mission Street

Presenting Yourself: Send Me Your Headshot, Short Bio, and Artist’s Statement

At every stage of an artist’s career, the first request from a curator, producer, or event coordinator is: “Please send me a headshot, bio, and artist’s statement.” Artists who attend this workshop will leave with a fine tuned narrative biography, an artist’s statement, and an opportunity to meet other artists who are developing their artistic practice.
The workshop facilitator will begin with examples of well-written biographies and artist’s statements. Attendees will then be asked to write a short paragraph about themselves and their work that they will share with the group for constructive feedback. The attendees will then be asked to present a short “elevator pitch” about  who they are and their artwork.
