SUMMARY:Professional Identity for Working Artists: Statements\, Bios\, and CVs
DESCRIPTION:A hands-on writing workshop where artists develop their artist statement\, professional bio\, and CV.\n\n\nMany artists struggle not with making the work—but with explaining it. \nThis workshop is designed for artists and creatives who want to clearly articulate who they are\, what they do\, and how to speak about their work in professional settings. Participants will spend the evening writing\, editing\, and refining the core documents every working artist needs: an artist statement\, professional bio\, and artist CV. \nThis is a hands-on writing workshop focused on language\, clarity\, and confidence. You will leave with strong drafts and clear direction on how to finalize these materials for galleries\, applications\, commissions\, and opportunities. \nWe will cover: \n\nThe difference between an artist statement and a bio\nWriting in first vs. third person\nShort and long versions for different uses\nWhat belongs on an artist CV (and what doesn’t)\nHow to talk about your work in plain\, professional language\n\nYou’ll have time to write\, receive prompts\, and participate in small group peer review. \nThis workshop treats artists as working professionals and provides the foundational language needed to be hired\, commissioned\, exhibited\, or supported. \nYou will leave with:  \n✔ A strong draft artist statement  \n✔ A polished professional bio  \n✔ Clear guidance for completing your artist CV \nIdeal for emerging\, mid-career\, returning\, or self-taught artists who feel stuck explaining their work. \nAbout the Artist: \nMegan Halsey is an award-winning illustrator\, designer\, and licensed artist whose work appears in children’ s books\, magazines\, and on wall art\, textiles\,greeting cards\, and gifts.  \nA lifelong creative and educator\,Megan is former faculty at Pratt Institute\, Moore College of Art\, and Pennsylvania College of Art & Design.
