Clinic with Emma Dwyer (Digital Marketing and Communications)
This clinic with Emma Dwyer follows her webinar looking at the Digital Marketing and Communication for visual artists.
The internet is making it easier for artists to network and reach new audiences both on and off line. Artists are promoting themselves, consciously or not, as a brand. People are engaging with and buying from makers, artists, and designers online. It’s easy to present you and your work to these audiences through effective communications.
This 20 minute one-to-one clinic gives you practical advice and basic tools to communicate about your work and market your practice.
Emma Dwyer has experience in various areas of the arts including architecture, theatre, and visual art. Her expertise is in arts communications. She has held roles in Dublin Contemporary 2011, mother’s tankstation, Irish Architecture Foundation, Mermaid County Wicklow Arts Centre and most recently as Communications Manager with EVA International. Alongside a healthy obsession with the internet, Emma loves writing. She is a regular contributor to Image Interiors and Living Magazine and has recently contributed to Paper Visual Art, ‘One Here Now: The Brian O’Doherty / Patrick Ireland Project, Architecture Ireland, and Response to a Request. Emma has in the past edited various independent art publications and a community newspaper.
