Open Call for Spring 2021 Talks Studio Visits for Miami-based artists!
Locust Projects and Oolite Arts announce its Open Call for Miami-based artists to have an online studio visit with an internationally renowned director or curator who is visiting Miami as part of the 2021 Talks series.
Studio Visits are a unique component of the Talks series offering Miami-based artists one-on-one professional development opportunities to gain insights and expertise from leading curators with a national and international perspective.
In addition to applying for Studio Visits, make sure you register for the Spring 2021 Talks series, which will be held on FaceBook Live, where arts leaders talk about their curatorial vision and practice, the art and artists that have shaped their careers, and how they support the work of artists whether in museums or non-traditional spaces.
