Talk to Focus on Getting Artists on Web - October 24, 2007
NORTH ADAMS - Massachusetts College of Liberal Arts' Berkshire Cultural Resource Center and Northern Berkshire Creative Arts will continue their series of talks and seminars for working artists on Thursday, Nov. 1, 6 to 8 p.m., with "Creating a Web Presence for Your Art."
The lecture, to be given at NBCA by artist and Web developer Matthew Belanger, is free and open to the public. Advance registration is required.
Belanger is a new media artist who has worked with a variety of digital media and Web technologies for more than 20 years. He says blogging tools and Web site content management systems have changed how artists create sites.
"These tools don't just allow artists to create and update their own portfolio Web sites; they allow you to be part of a greater community of artists online," Belanger said. "There you can engage with others to discuss your art or anything else going on in your world. These tools can even be the basis for completely original works of network art."
The series will continue on with "Legal Issues for Artists" with Volunteer Lawyers for the Arts on Dec. 6 at MCLA Gallery 51; "Become a Creative Teaching Artist" with David Marshall, education programs manager at the Massachusetts Cultural Council, at NBCA on Jan. 24, 2008; "The Business of Art" on Feb. 7, 2008, at MCLA Gallery 51; "The Creative Process" with John MacDonald on March 6, 2008, at NBCA; "Sol LeWitt Comes to North Adams" on April 3, 2008, at MCLA Gallery 51; and "What do Galleries Want?" with area gallery owners on May 1, 2008, at MCLA Gallery 51.
The artist talks generally will be held the first Thursday of every month, 6 to 8 p.m., at either NBCA at 115 State St., Building 1, Heritage State Park, or at the BCRC in MCLA Gallery 51, 51 Main St.
To register, call Veronica Bosley, program coordinator of the Berkshire Cultural Resource Center, 413-663-5253. For more information about NBCA go to www.nbcreativearts.org . For more information about the BCRC, go to www.mcla.edu/bcrc |
