“How to Communicate Your Gallery”

8 April 2019
Delfina Foundation
London

Overview

An essential full-day course for practicing and emerging gallerists on communication strategies to better combine offline and online channels
What can communication strategies mean for art galleries? How should these develop a strategic marketing and communications plan? How do they identify and manage their key communication objectives: ‘tell our story’, engage audiences, raise awareness of artists and events, drive sales?
Communicating in the art world today encompasses many different activities and channels—press releases, website building, printed material, social media, online platforms, or social events—, how can galleries manage this range of tasks and roles given their, usually, limited staff, resources and time?
This day-long meeting will provide participants—gallery staff and art professionals at large—helpful advice and practical knowledge to expand their communication skills.
