Applications are now open for the next round of Mixer Match for Visual Artists and Galleries scheduled for Wednesday, April 25, at 6:00 pm! Yay! This is one of our most popular events. Now in our third year, the Mixer Match phenomenon continues to grow and be a valuable learning experience for blossoming to mid-career artists. The April Mixer Match pairs visual artists and art professionals in an evening of fast paced speed networking.
What is speed networking? In the Mixer Match, participants have only two quick minutes to pitch their portfolios to each of the 20 local art dealers, gallery owners or curators. The pace is lightening fast, so you better have your elevator pitch down. Get tips from this article on how to make the most of the Mixer Match experience.
Besides having this valuable face time with art dealers, there is also time to mingle with fellow artists and what we call “Superstars.” Our Superstars are some of the most successful artists and professional advisers in our community. As you wait for your round to pitch, they are on hand to answer questions, give advice, and offer tips on how to approach galleries successfully.
