Center Thyself

BRINGING YOU AND YOUR WORK IN TOUCH WITH THE FINE ART COMMUNITY

As a photographic artist, your career lies beautifully before you. The one caveat is that art only makes up half of the equation. On this journey, developing relationships will be key. As great as your work may be, it is by connecting with individuals who can get the work seen, that you gain an advantage. The first step will be to discover yourself.

We invite you to spend a half-day defining your relationship to your work, clarifying your personal and artistic objectives, and determining your idea of success. Concurrently, speakers from various segments of the fine art community—a curator, a gallerist, and a publisher—will enlighten you on all facets of working with the players in their respective fields. Now is your chance to center yourself and move ahead, or do nothing. Either way, your future will arrive. The question is, will you?
