REFINING YOUR VOICE

Made up of two face-to-face workshops - Artist CVs and Artist Statements and Bios - these face-to-face workshops with workshop facilitator Anne Masters are each two hours long followed by a 15min 'tips on how to express your idea with clarity' session.

'Artist CVs and Artist Statements and Bios are the most crucial documents artists need.

Often artists think ‘mine are fine’. Yet in many cases, these are the least focused documents and often make or break your chance for an EOI, grant, award or residency.

These workshops will deliver outcomes that will benefit you the artist in seeking to improve your professional development and business basics. The workshops also include minor editing of each participant’s document and individual post-workshop feedback.

Learn to craft compelling narratives to showcase your artistic journey.' Anne Masters

Both workshops will be held at The Imaginarium, Shellharbour Village on Wednesday 8 May 2024

Refine your artist CV – 10am to 12.15pm
Writing Artist Statements and Bios – 1.00pm to 3.15pm
