• Artist Statement Coaching Workshop | MK Apothecary Kristine Go | A 2 hour online workshop for visual artists to write a concise artist statement that captures your overall vision as an artist, led by Kristine Go. As artists, we are asked to write a statement for shows, galleries, grants, branding, marketing, social media etc. The artist statement is meant to help people understand our work and who we are as artists. Yet, as visual artists, we believe our work needs to stand on its own. This workshop will offer tools that can make your artist statement more inspiring for yourself and to those who read it. | $25 | Deadline: September 23, 1:30-3:30 pm
