The Arts Council of Indianapolis and Primary Colours collaborate each year to offer a series of professional development workshops for central Indiana artists. Past topics have included accounting, legal matters, portfolio development, photographing your own artwork, technology issues for artists, writing your artist statement, grant writing for artists and more. For this, our eighth year, we are leaving the summer months to drinks on patios and long weekends at the lake and starting our workshop series early this year.  Stay tuned for topics, presenters and more details on spring and fall workshops coming soon.
Upcoming Workshops:
March 21:  The Supplemental Materials Seminar
April 11:  Handling, Packing and Shipping Artwork
April 25:  How to Become a Teaching Artist

First in our spring series:

March 21: The Supplemental Materials Seminar

When submitting to any professional opportunity, your supplemental materials such as work samples, reviews and other print material can be just as important as the project or grant itself. In order to be taken seriously by a panel of professionals selecting grants or commissions, your supplemental materials must be professional and top notch. Come to this workshop to see examples of good and bad submissions. Learn what panels are looking for and what turns them off right away. If you plan on submitting for a grant, residency or gallery show this year, this workshop is a must do.
