ARTIST CAFE

Cottonwood is excited to host ongoing community discussions exploring the business of art. Local gallery curators, art scene mavens, and artists of all experience levels will have an informal, round table conversation about what it takes to be a professional artist. Please join us and be a part of the discussion!

You can look forward to learning about a diversity of topics from guest presenters, and enjoy coffee and libations, and more exciting surprises. Space is limited—sign up for the date you want ahead of time to reserve your spot!

Artist Test Kitchen will also be quarterly, happening after Café at 3:00…click here to find out more.

FINISHING DETAILS

You finished your piece—congrats!! Now it’s time to REALLY finish. We’ll talk about economical framing strategies, what to do with your edges, to varnish or not to varnish, glass options, and hanging hardware for both traditional and nontraditional works. A misstep with any of these details could keep you out of the show. Come learn how to avoid the faux pas that drive curators up the wall.

Assigning a monetary value to your art work can feel icky—let us help you take the emotion out of the transaction! This topic is requested so often we cover it at least once a year. Come find out how other artists figure it out, and share your experiences with the group.
