So Many Artists, So Few Galleries – Finding Your Way Inwith Larry Reese
March 29 - 6:30pm
How does one go about building a relationship with an art gallery? What approach is most conducive for a mutual beneficial connection? First and foremost, is the gallery right for you and are you right for the gallery? Larry Reese has multiple tips to offer those artists who seek to expand ways to get their art seen and potentially sold. The talk will include a list of do’s and don’t, informative handouts, and a lively, hopefully entertaining discussion.
This presentation is offered as part of Art Speaks and takes place at the Red Deer Museum + Art Gallery from 6:30-8 pm. Pre-registration is required. Light refreshments available. For ages 18+.
