MARK:
The business of art for all of New York
Looking to expand your visibility and focus a little more on the business side of your art practice? Interested in getting to know more artists throughout New York State?
MARK is the New York Foundation for the Arts’ new six-month professional growth program for 80-100 visual artists throughout NY State. The MARK program focuses on giving artists the opportunity to expand their visibility through learning and then applying concrete professional practice skills.
MARK starts in late January 2008 and runs until June with four monthly seminars and a weekend retreat for all participating artists in New York City. Monthly seminars will be held at nine partnering regional arts organizations throughout New York State. The program focuses on goal setting and strategies for expanding your visibility as a visual artist. Individual sessions will cover the topics such as portfolio development, grant applications/ project proposals, speaking about your work and public presentations. Monthly assignments will apply practical knowledge acquired in the class and include email interaction with other participating artists across the state. The program will culminate in June with a retreat for all MARK artists in New York City.
Applications to the program are due at 5pm December 1st. Session dates currently available on theNYFA MARK website. Cost to participate in the program is $150 which covers all seminars and as well as room and board for the weekend in New York City.
Join us for an info session at the Stanley Theatre/Arts Council, MARK's central regional partner. The MARK info session will outline the program, review the application and provide additional information about the NYFA’s other programs for artists.
Join us, make your mark!
