How to make the internet work for you

Tuesday, April 14th, 2009

Vice President, Anita Wanless, will be giving an overview on how to make the internet work for you.

This is a presentation and discussion on how you, as an artist, can use the internet to keep in contact with other artists, groups and galleries – and promote your own event – with the help of the internet

Topics covered:

  • Facebook – how to become a member and connect with artists, groups, galleries and events
  • Create a website – how to create your own blog-style website for free, display your CV and upload images of your work
  • Increase sales – how to sell your artwork on websites, such as Etsy and Red Bubble

When: 7.15pm, Thursday 16th April, 2009 (straight after our committee meeting)
Where: Wirksworth Studio
Cost: FREE (feel welcome to bring a friend)

“This talk will be targeted at those who might have avoided the internet so far, but would like to jump in and have a go. Feel free to bring some questions that I can help answer in the discussion time at the end of the talk. My motivation is to get as many HIP members online and as internet savvy as possible!”
