Social Media Strategies for Artists

Social media needs to be an element of every artist's toolkit for promotion and fundraising – but by golly, it can be overwhelming trying to figure out how to represent oneself across the variety of social networks like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Snapchat and Tumblr! 

Social Media Strategies for Artists is intended for artists and organzations who have already begun using social media but are ready to learn more effective techniques to promote themselves and their work.

Class includes:

- Overview of social networks and examples of artists using them effectively
- Opportunity to get feedback on content and engagement strategies
- Segment on paid social media marketing strategies like Facebook and Instagram ads

**It is recommended that all participants have a smartphone, tablet or laptop so as to best take advantage of the session.**
