Hamilton Artists Inc.

Join us on Saturday August 8th for ‘Installing Your Art,’ with Bre Shanahan. Over 3 hours, participants will gain valuable hands-on skills on how to install their artwork in a gallery setting. From drilling and filling holes, to painting a wall, straight lines and, of course, hanging. Bre will share her knowledge as an artist, educator and preparator so artists can walk away with knowledge on proper tool care, safely handling artwork and installing vinyl lettering. Some materials provided but if you can, bring a drill! Installing Your Art is part of the Inc’s Working On It series: workshops on professional development for artists. The workshop is free but space is limited. Pre-register to save your spot here: https://theinc.ca/shop/installing-your-art-workshop-ticket
