Websites for Artists
A thoughtful, professional online presence is essential to developing your reputation, your persona and your audience as an artist. While social media platforms work well for promotion and connection building, they’re best when used as a complement to a dedicated, well-considered website that centres on you and your work.
The Websites for Artists four-week course will give you the opportunity to plan, create, launch and maintain a fully functional website using WordPress, one of the most popular website platforms in the world. We’ll focus on thinking through the purpose of your website in relation to your artistic practice and goals, consider strategies for presentation, content development and keeping things fresh, as well as hands-on instruction to learn the mechanics of doing it yourself.
Course Dates:
The course will run from 6:30 – 9:00pm for the following dates:
June 4, June 11, July 2, July 9
This course will be presented in person at Creative Manitoba (245 McDermot Ave).
