In this workshop led by Artist Trust Program Director Brian McGuigan, you'll learn the key components and proper format of an artist résumé and understand how to organize your experience and accomplishments on paper.
*This workshop is open to artists of all disciplines and ideal for artists applying for grants, residencies, and other opportunities who don't have an artist résumé or need to revise one. Highly recommended for emerging artists.
