In this workshop, led by artist and designer Ginelle Hustrulid, you'll look at examples of successful artist statements and resumes from artists of all disciplines and then revise your own. You'll leave with solid drafts of a statement and resume to use when applying for grants and residencies and as part of your website or portfolio.
