SUMMARY:Virtual: Creating Good Vibes With Your Artist Bio
DESCRIPTION:Artist Bio Workshop For Creatives Facilitated by Richard Burroughs\nClass Dates: Sunday\, November 10 · 1 – 3pm EST \nTime: 1:00 – 3:00pm \nVenue: The Children’s Art Carnival \nThe bio is an important marketing tool and should be carefully crafted to bring the world closer to the artist. It tells the artist’s story\, building a connection between the person reading it and the artist. Unfortunately\, a clumsily written bio can work against an artist. A journalist\, art school\, gallerist\, or buyer can get bad vibes from a bad bio\, so this one-day workshop will show you how to get your vibes right with a bio that works for you. \nWe will talk about: \n\nChoosing/Shooting a bio picture\nWhat to include in an artist bio\nWhat to avoid when writing a bio\nWhen to update your bioAnd other bio-related topics. Expect to be able to write your bio after finishing this workshop.\n\n  \n\nThis event is open to the public. Online registration is required to participate. Suggested donation of $5 or pay-what-you-can. (Register with donation) \n\n\n\n  \nRichard Burroughs\n\n\n\n\nAbout the facilitator: \nRichard Burroughs is multi-hyphenate\, working across multiple industries. He is a journalist for BK Reader\, a digital daily news and information source covering Brooklyn. He covers the Brooklyn Nets\, the NY Liberty\, and sports-related stories\, and writes about music\, fashion\, and culture in Brooklyn. \nMr. Burroughs is an art curator who produces a traveling exhibit called Cover Lover Remix\, a group show where artists remix their favorite album covers. The last exhibition recently closed at Brooklyn Navy Yard and was a 1990s-themed edition of Cover Lover Remix. \nRich also works as an open format DJ\, getting all ages up and dancing at weddings and block parties\, or rocking late-night at bars and restaurants.
