Beschreibung • Description

Relationships and community are at the heart of every artist's world. Having a solid network is foundational to the way we engage with contemporary practice, our potential for collaborations, our capacity to work professionally and to succeed in maintaining a sustainable, long term practice. Over three hours, we will address building the confidence needed to create and maintain these relationships long term, discover the importance of showing up and following up and learn strategies of outreach to expand current networks. Through practical exercises, students will gain a personalised perspective on their own current network and how to build it authentically, as well as  new insights on what a network can be made of and how to connect.
