What Artists Have Said About This Training:

I went from no exhibitions to being in group exhibitions and a successful two-person show. Amanda's advice was indispensable.

Amanda's guidance enabled me to set up my own one-night solo and go on to coordinate a successful group exhibition with three other artists!

I have learned so much from Amanda about all the different things that are involved in having a successful exhibition.

Hello,

I'm Amanda

I'm a practising visual artist, and artist business coach. Exhibiting has been central to my professional practice for more than 25 years.

I am currently preparing my 31st solo showing and have participated in more than 90 additional exhibitions in Australia and internationally. I have exhibited through commercial and public galleries, artist-run spaces, prizes, pop-ups and experimental venues, and curated group exhibitions involving up to 55 artists.

Exhibiting can be exciting, valuable and nerve-wracking. There are opportunities for artists at many stages, but the right opportunity, preparation and expectations matter. This training is for artists considering their first exhibition and for those who have exhibited before but want to pursue stronger opportunities and exhibit more effectively.

In this free training, I take you through the exhibition process from start to finish, highlighting the decisions, practical considerations and common problems that can shape the experience and outcome.
