March 27 | Self-Promotion & Communications for Artists (VIRTUAL)

Spudnik Press is offering a variety of virtual workshops on Professional Practices for Artists! As artists we spend so much time creating our work and honing our crafts. But what comes next? How do you get the word out to people who will support you, and get them excited about your practice?

Topic for the March 27 session:

Self-Promotion & Communications for Artists

Now more than ever, artists need skills and tools for getting the word out about our work and getting that work funded. This online workshop will take you through the fundamentals of self-promotion and personal fundraising: from different ways to show people what you do, to launching your own DIY crowd-funding campaign complete with newsletters and press releases. You will leave with a plan for very manageable projects, tailored to your own needs.

For more than a decade, Teaching Artist Anders Zanichkowsky has been raising money and rallying support for nonprofits and community groups. They have also done the same for their own artistic practice, using cheap or free tools adapted from a career in fundraising and communications. One of Anders’ favorite things to do for their community is teach these skills to other artists so that we all feel more confident, optimistic, and authentic when we put ourselves out there and invite people to support us.

April 17 | Monotype Printing 101 (1 Day)

Monoprinting is an exciting form of printmaking that favors organic, gestural, textural, and ephemeral marks and imagery. This process is an incredibly immediate, intuitive, and playful way of exploring printmaking. It is well suited to people new to printmaking and artists who typically work with paint, mixed media, or drawing.

This workshop will introduce students to the basics of monotype printing. Throughout the workshop, students will discover ways to create unique prints while learning about the properties of ink, paper, pressure, and how they interact to be able to explore the process of monotype on their own. Printing techniques will include additive and reductive processes, stenciling, and ghost printing. Each student will make three prints to explore these processes.
