This course is the second of a series of in class workshops with arts professionals designed to familiarize students with managerial, legal, and promotional challenges that working artists face. The class will also provide students with a chance to meet and be in dialogue with representatives from artists residencies, cultural agencies, and non-profit institutions that support emerging artists. Students will begin to engage with their future as professional artists/ writers/ curators through direct contact with program officers at granting agencies; museum curators, marketing personnel, art dealers and collector, art appraisers, attorneys, accountants and web designers.
