About the Event
Professional Development for Artists is KODA’s inaugural community building and business bootcamp. Artists are invited to participate in shaping the program of the organization, to best suit their needs. Host Sheetal Prajapati will facilitate a 30-minute discussion asking the question “What do artists need from a residency program?”. Participants will share their experiences, ideas and recommendations for the development of a social justice focused residency.
Three comprehensive seminars will follow, each lasting 30 minutes, plus 15-minute Q&A. Patton Hindle, Head of Arts at Kickstarter, will share insights on how to launch and run a Kickstarter campaign. Kenseth Armstead, Artist, will lead a session on developing site-specific public art proposals. Dread Scott, Artist, will share his community engagement journey and examples.
