This is a 2 day Zoom Workshop,
This two-day workshop will explore the process of preparing an exhibition proposal to share online. Instructor Frances Jakubek has fifteen years of experience working in non-profit, academic, and commercial gallery spaces and will work with students to refine an exhibition plan for a singular body of work.
The class will cover the information that most venues require to consider showing an artist’s work. The course will include working with students to select a cohesive body of work, sizing and presentation choices, costs, and logistics to consider. Discussion of successful exhibitions and mistakes learned first-hand, Frances aims to help students prepare for the highs and lows of organizing an exhibition. She will discuss best practices in approaching venues and provide resources such as printing, framing, and shipping vendors. Students will walk away with an outline for their proposal and confidence in presenting their work.
