Upcoming Workshops
Putting Yourself Out There: Planning For Shows and Residencies
Friday, October 9, Noon–1 p.m.
Guilford Merchants Association, 225 Commerce Pl., Greensboro
Greensboro mixed-media artist Natalie Schorr shares lessons from exhibiting in local, national and international juried shows and completing multiple artist residencies. Artists will learn how to identify worthwhile opportunities, strengthen submissions, and navigate practical issues including fees, commissions, shipping and insurance.
Building a Creative Life That Looks Like You
October 20, 5:30–6:30 p.m.
The Art Gallery at Congdon Yards, 400 W. English Rd., Suite 151, High Point
Artist, writer and technologist Roxanne Darling leads a candid conversation about building a creative identity that reflects the full range of an artist’s life and practice — and translating that identity into a website and public presence that feels authentic. Presented by The ACGG in partnership with High Point Arts Council and The Art Gallery at Congdon Yards.
From Zero to Newsletter in Just One Day
Nov. 14, 2026, 10 a.m. – 2 p.m.
High Point Arts Council, 121 S. Centennial St., High Point, NC 27260
Email newsletters are an affordable and effective way for artists to stay connected with audiences, promote events, showcase new work, and increase sales. In this hands-on workshop, arts entrepreneurship educator Cynthia Deis will help you get started with your own professional newsletter. You’ll explore email platforms, newsletter templates, how often to send, ways to build your mailing list, and how to repurpose content for your website or blog. Bring a fully charged laptop — you’ll have time to work on your own newsletter with Cynthia’s support.
