PRACTICE 101: Mid-Career Intensive
Join Arts Northern Rivers for a professional development workshop facilitated by internationally acclaimed artist, Karla Dickens. With over three decades of experience in contemporary practice, Karla will share her insights into the sector and the systems she has developed for maintaining and sustaining long term practice.
Designed for mid-career visual artists, this workshop offers a rare opportunity to hear key learnings and career turning points across commercial representation, working with regional galleries, residencies, collaboration, and public art.
“You don’t wait until you're in the mood to work, you just work”.
