Artist Talk Templates

For Talks & Workshops

All artists collaborating in the Purrsonalities project will be asked to give a talk/workshop during the two month exhibition. This is to give artists a chance to engage with the community. We'll go over this in more detail in our weekly meetings, but I've outlined a couple of templates to give you a  general idea.

Talks/ workshops will be done in pairs or groups. I feel like this would be a good place for artists to discuss their experience collaborating, how they navigate the differences between digital and traditional mediums, how they documented the cats, lessons learned, etc. This can be a presentation format with slides,  a round table with a moderator asking questions, etc.  It should also have an interactive section. 

These talks will be every Sunday at 3:00 PM.
