Synonym will share their vast experience in presenting cultural programming in unconventional spaces. This workshop will provide tools, discussion and examples of successful exhibitions for artists in a wide variety of venues, from traditional galleries, to restaurants, to the streets. What are the risks and what are the opportunities in presenting outside of a white cube? Chloe Chafe will focus on creative marketing of off-gallery programming and Andrew Eastman will discuss the ins and outs of partnerships and funding opportunities for artists.
