Facebook and Artists

Area artists will be able to take advantage of the upcoming seminar, "Facebook and Artists", to be presented by Ypsilanti artist and educator Dee Overly. The Riverside Art Center will host the half-day event on two separate dates: July 25 and August 8, 2009.

Facebook, as well as other social networking sites, can be valuable tools for art marketing. This is a how-to seminar, during which Dee will provide specific ways for artists to utilize Facebook to capitalize on their online presence. More details and registration information can be obtained at http://deeoverly.com/facebook-for-artists.pdf .

For the time being I will be remaining somewhat Facebook-illiterate ................ what with the Atlanta CPSA Convention Week looming on the horizon, followed by a three-person show that I'm in (rather frantic) preparations for. I have attended Dee's seminars previously however and highly recommend them: both for the comprehensive nature of the material presented, as well as its practical application.

  2. Teresa; thanks so much for your kind words, and likewise. I remember your piece in Seattle, and I must have come across your website some time ago because I have seen "Swiss Chard Mosaic" previously also. Very nice work. Please do look for me in Atlanta, and I will watch for you also!
