4pm - 4:45pm, 7 August 2024, at Geraldton Regional Art Gallery, ages 18 plus

Join us at GRAG for an Exhibition-Ready Workshop focused on writing artist statements for your artwork.

Having trouble figuring out what you need to write for an artist statement? Come along to learn essential skills in writing these statements, and the importance of capturing the meaning of your work. Pick up a few tips to help you make the most of your artist statement.

This workshop will be a 45 minute workshop going over the basics of why it is important to clearly communicate your artist statement and what you need to consider when submitting these into art prizes and exhibitions.

Bring along an artist statement, accompanied by a photo of your work, and put theory into practice with some hands-on writing and reflection!

This project has been made possible through the support of the Department of Local Government Sport and Cultural Industries, and Lotterywest.
