How Can Artists Work with Galleries? Visual Arts


An Online Masterclass Special focused on equipping artists with the skills and knowledge to gain excellent gallery representation.

How do successful artists get noticed by galleries? What do galleries think of your applications? And how can you impress them?

Our upcoming Masterclass covers the in’s and out’s of gallery representation. Held on Zoom and open to artists of all levels. This session will help you navigate the basics of gallery representation, get started on applications and provide you with expert tips to stand out from the crowd.

This session will cover:

• Gallery application basics

• Steps to finding the right gallery for you

• Do’s & Don’ts of approaching art galleries

• How to prepare a strong portfolio and ‘getting gallery ready’

• Insight into gallery negotiations

• Actionable points for you to get started with gallery representation.

This event will also provide you with the chance to ask Gallerists your burning questions about gallery representation. All attendees will receive a guide, worksheet, and glossary to gallery terms.

This Masterclass will be joined by gallery experts. Our host for this event is Karen van Hoey Smith. Karen has experience as an Artist Manager, Auctioneer, and consultant expert. With a successful history as an Art Broker, Karen has extensive experience working with galleries, which makes her the perfect host for this event.
