20+ Steps on How to Host Your Own Art Show

Being an artist can often feel a lot being a middle schooler, awkwardly standing in the gymnasium, waiting to be chosen. You’re standing in oversized, ill-fitting clothes, hoping to be picked by the popular or most athletic kids. “Please pick me. And PLEASE don’t let me be last.”

But here’s the thing: You don’t have to wait to be chosen. Sometimes, you have to make your own opportunities.  

It’s time to create your own game, your own team…it’s time to host your own art show!
