A professional development workshop for artists presented by Two Girls Working
Two Girls Working is the collaboration of artists Tiffany Ludwig (NJ) and Renee Piechocki (PA). For the past six years, they have developed their national, interview-based project Trappings into exhibitions, public installations, and a book. During this workshop, the artists will describe Trappings, and focus on how they have made the project such a success. They will talk about how their strategies for raising funds, developing a traveling exhibition, creating public art installations, marketing, and public relations can be applied to other artists’ projects. They will also describe the process of working with a writer’s agent and identifying a publisher for their book.
The workshop is funded by workshop is funded by The Heinz Endowments and the Greater Pittsburgh Arts Council
