Meet my 2016 Mentorship Artists!

One of the wonderful things about owning an art gallery is that I can choose who gets to exhibit!

And one month a year, I devote to showing the work of my "mentorship" artists.  This is a six month long program that helps emerging artists learn how to become professional (in other words, earn $ from their artwork!) and how to present and price their work for the Denver market.

This program is a big commitment for each of the artists since they not only have to pay for the program but they also need to create/update their website, create/update their social media platforms, create and print a portfolio of their art, create other marketing items like postcards and business cards, and also make unique art for the exhibition.  A big challenge!

Here are my "students" for August — left to right — Mary Clark, Karen Bennett , and Keats Scott.

If you live in the Denver area, I hope you can come to their First Friday event on August 5th from 6-9pm at aBuzz Gallery, 3340 Walnut St, Denver, 80206.
