Event Details

ArtCamp Houston is a community-based event this Saturday, February 28, at Caroline Collective (http://www.carolinecollective.cc) to bring arts supporters together to discuss the state of the arts in Houston, share best practices, and develop an informed strategy on how we can collectively support and contribute to our arts community.

Through an open forum and peer-to-peer education sessions, we hope to:

  • Inform participants of available resources online and offline
  • Share best practices among organizations, including audience development, fundraising, board and volunteer recruitment, and online outreach
  • Share best practices among artists, such as developing their careers, promoting themselves and their work, obtaining gallery representation, and building an online presence

All community members are invited and welcome to participate, including artists, arts organizations, administrators, curators, collectors, creatives, patrons, related organizations, granting bodies, gallery representatives, and art enthusiasts.
