Marketing Your Work Within & Beyond Red Lake The workshop focuses on ways artists can work together to market their work within and beyond Red Lake. It includes a networking and skills exchange session where artists identify what skills they have and need; identification of individual marketing tools (artist statement, biography, photographing work, brochures, postcards, website, social media) and what decisions need to be made in preparing them, and; how other communities are marketing their work collectively within and beyond their communities.
