This practical workshop with marketing specialist Ben Starick will help you to integrate marketing and communications activities into your project plans and to develop strategies that are realistic, simple and impactful.

It will provide best practice advice for individuals wanting to kickstart or refresh their approach to marketing and communications. Areas covered include:

  • Stakeholder segmentation – identifying target audiences

  • Content management – tools, resources and assets 

  • Communication channels – web, email and social media 

  • Media relations and publicity – creating opportunities for media

  • Direct audience engagement – working with stakeholders and partners

Presented as part of the Platform LAB program, our Professional Development series delivers monthly, online lectures led by guest practitioners working across Australia and internationally. Curated by Bureau of Works, these seminars are designed to build artists' professional capacity in curatorial practice, arts project management, community engagement and marketing. Professional Development is open to artists of all career stages, and particularly well-suited to early and mid-career artists.

Tickets can be purchased for individual sessions, or as a discounted session bundle.
