Taught by fine art photographer and communications expert Caleb Cole, this two-hour workshop will emphasize the importance of differentiation and self revelation as a means to building and maintaining a robust following. Sharing examples of blogs and other successful online communications, including his own, Caleb will help artists working in any media better understand and approach available tools. Bring your goals, your questions, and your friends.
