Artist Opportunities Listserv

February 2012

New public art, professional development, and exhibition opportunities have been added to the listserv this month. Check the links below for details.

Of special note:

  • The Pittsburgh Technology Council is seeking entries for the 2012 Design, Art and Technology Awards. This year, awards will be given for specific projects, products, or works of art. Click here for more info.
  • Kelly Strayhorn Theater hosts Monday Night Rounds on February 20 from 7 –9 pm. Susan Blackman facilitates the next topic: Be a Money Magnet. Money comes from many sources; foundation grants, individual donations, ticket sales, touring income, fees for services, and your pocket. Learn how to grow your funding without shrinking your pocket. The program brings professional artists and arts managers together with individual artists and smaller companies for discussions about successes and challenges of presenting art to the public. Seasoned and emerging artists and producers explore topics in depth from their individual experiences. The event is free or ‘pay what you can’.
  • What art controversy are you dealing with this week? Is your program or public art project dealing with media uproar and public backlash? These issues are just the tip of the iceberg for many art programs and professionals implementing public art and highly visible art programs. Learn from arts experts how to prevent crisis, quell controversy and advocate for all art. Join the Office of Public art at the Greater Pittsburgh Arts Council's office at 810 Penn Ave, Suite 200, Pittsburgh PA 15222 on Wednesday, February 22 2012 to view a Public Art Network webinar titled The Controversy Conundrum: Public Art Advocacy and Communication Strategies to Keep Your Program Thriving. The webinar will take place from 2:00 - 3:30 pm and is free. Click here to register.
