Professional Artist Development with Lauren Gissing

About
Emerging local artist Lauren Gissing will be leading a practical workshop designed to help young artists take the next step in their creative journeys. Over 2.5 hours, participants will explore the essentials of building a professional art practice, from writing artist statements and bios to presenting work effectively through framing and display. The workshop will introduce how to apply for exhibitions and respond to Expressions of Interest (EOIs), alongside an introduction to public art pathways, proposals, and concept development. Lauren will also share insights into professional practices, including pricing work, networking, and building an online presence. Through a mix of hands-on activities, group discussions, and real-world examples, participants will gain confidence in communicating their artistic vision and navigating opportunities in the art world.Date
