I encourage you to stop and think about what it means to be part of a worldwide community of artists.
Really. Stop now. Think about it.
Even if the proclamation of National Arts & Humanities Month (October) is for the U.S., we know that national boundaries are fuzzier because of the Internet. We feel a kinship with artists around the globe.
I ask you to spend time this month on these two actions: collaborating and advocating.
Since this is the Art Biz Blog, let’s look at how this applies to your marketing.
Collaborate
Trade postal support with another artist.
Contact someone whose work you admire and organize a 2-person exhibit or collaborate on a single project.
Advocate
I doubt that asking people to celebrate National Arts & Humanities Month will change their behavior much. You can, however, change your behavior.
I give you 4 easy and meaningful ways to do this in this week’s Art Marketing Action Newsletter.
Are you collaborating and advocating?
