SUMMARY:How not to be a Starving Artist with Claire Henley
DESCRIPTION:An informal talk about surviving as a professional artist. \nFreelance for 38 years\, Claire Henley has illustrated such diverse things as margarine tubs and children’s books before becoming a fine artist 16 years ago. She is the current Artist in Residence at Broadway Arts Festival.   \nDuring the talk\, topics will include finding your tribe\, being organised\, showing and selling your work\, galleries\, social media\, multiple income streams\, licensing\, talks and demonstrations and\, finally\, your questions.\nAlthough the emphasis will be on making money from your art\, hobby artists should learn a lot too. Since there’s no magic formula\, Claire will simply be talking about things that have worked for her\, things that didn’t really come off\, and things that were a total disaster! \nThere will be a Q&A session at the end of the talk and a pop-up shop of Claire’s work\, cards\, etc to enjoy. \nTickets  £20 (50 places) go on sale to the general public at 10am on 15th March\, and 1 week earlier to festival benefactors who benefit from priority booking. \n

Note: You can only buy a ticket for yourself\, not multiples for friends.\nTurn up with your blank canvas and your kit at the marquee on the village green in the centre of the village in the time slot you selected to check in and get your canvas stamped & numbered on the reverse.\nSpend the day creating your masterpiece at your chosen location in or around the village (you can paint up at Broadway Tower too).\nGet your work of art back to the marquee anytime from 2pm\, but by 3:30pm at the very latest when the doors will close for judging.\nIf you have used an easel\, please leave it on your easel for display in the exhibition.\nIf you would like to sell your work\, have the price ready to provide to us when you hand it back in.\nThe entries will then form a selling exhibition and be judged. Prize-winners will see a ribbon on their piece when the exhibition opens at 4pm.\nThe selling exhibition is then open to the public for all to enjoy from 4pm to 5pm.\nThe winner of the Visitors’ Choice Prize will be announced at 4:45pm\nOnly artwork started and completed on the day will qualify.\nArtwork can be in any medium & any size\, however we cannot accept photography or iPad art as a medium for a number of reasons.\nWe process all artwork sales at the exhibition through our card machine and then transfer 90% of the sale price directly to your bank account in the following days. 10% of all sales are retained as commission to help cover the costs of running the competition. A red dot will appear on sold works.\n\nThis event will go ahead despite poor weather (no refunds) – so please dress appropriately! \n\n\n\nThere are 85 tickets available for this event and they need to be purchased in advance (not available on the day). This is a popular event that tends to sell out 6 weeks prior. \nParticipants will need to bring their own paper\, canvas and art supplies. These will not be provided. \nYou will have a choice of registration slot at the gazebo on the village green: \nEarly Birds: 8:30-9:30am \nStill Keen: 9:30-10:30am\n \nBroadway Arts Festival accepts no responsibility for loss\, damage or injury during the day. \nTickets (£25) will go on sale to the general public at 10am on 15th March\, and 1 week earlier for Festival Benefactors who qualify for priority booking. \n
