Talking About Your Work with Confidence: The Artist Elevator Pitch
Many artists find it challenging to describe their work in a clear, engaging, and professional way. Especially in situations like meeting gallery owners, applying for grants, speaking with potential buyers, or networking at events. This interactive workshop helps creatives develop a strong, authentic "artist elevator pitch" that communicates who they are, what they make, and why their work matters.
Date: May 20, 2025
