SUMMARY:Workshop: Crafting Your Artist Statement
DESCRIPTION:This event has been postponed. Please check back for a rescheduled date.\n  \nAn artist statement is more than just a description of your work; it’s a window into your creative process\, vision\, and purpose. It sets the stage for how your audience will interpret and engage with your art. Whether you’re preparing for a gallery show\, a grant application\, or simply refining your artistic identity\, a strong artist statement is essential. \nJoin writer and educator Christina Berke for a 90-minute live workshop that will explore the art of crafting a compelling artist statement. This session will cover the purpose of artist statements\, look at artist statement samples\, and generate ideas based on guiding questions. Participants will walk away with the start of a draft of their own artist statement. There will be time reserved for questions and optional sharing. \nThis session will be a workshop consisting of exercises led by the guest speaker. Attendees are expected to bring a notebook and writing implement. We ask that registrants be certain that they can attend this session and engage fully with their cameras on. \nAbout Christina Berke\nChristina Berke MFA M.Ed. is a Chilean-American writer and educator based in Los Angeles.
