Arts marketing for rural arts organisations
Date: 14th May 2008
Time: 09:30 - 15:00
Susan will be presenting web marketing workshops at EMARAN Spring Event.Location: Harborough Theatre, Church Square, Market Harborough, Leics, LE16 7NB
EMARAN’s third regional event puts the spotlight on artists living and working in rural areas. Regional artists will share their experiences of overcoming the challenges, and making the most of the opportunities, of living and working in the rural East Midlands. Experienced rural practitioners will share with us some national and international models for artists thriving in rural areas, and will explore real and virtual ways of marketing yourself as an artist. There will be a range of workshops and discussion groups, a tour of Market Harborough artists’ studios, and a long lunch break to allow for networking.
This event, including lunch, is free, and for individual practitioners, there is a travel allowance (see below).
Presentations will cover a range of artforms including sculpture, dance, literature and digital artforms. There will be plenty of time to chat with the artist presenters, and also lots of space and time for you to voice your opinion and network with fellow artists and with those working in the arts and culture sector.
This third conference is aimed primarily at artists living and working in rural areas, as well as those who work with, commission or employ artists, for instance, local authorities, creative industries, rural regeneration organisations, the education sector and the broader cultural sector.
