We’re going to attempt a LAN Zoom meeting and see how well it works… If you don’t already know, Zoom is a video meeting facility. Anyone will be able to log into the LAN Zoom meeting (so let’s hope you all behave yourselves!). You won’t really be able to chat informally like in a face to face LAN meeting, but what we have planned might still work as a compromise… we’ll see!
We would like to record the meeting and post the recording on Art in Liverpool website, but if you don’t want your face to feature in the video then you can just turn your camera off.
If you don’t know how to use Zoom then don’t worry it is very easy and we’ve put some basic instructions further below.
Here’s the current line up for the meeting…
Josie Jenkins from LAN will share any opportunities she thinks you might find interesting.
Patrick Kirk Smith from Art in Liverpool will give an update on Liverpool Independents Biennial.
Jayne Lawless from Dead Pigeon Gallery will give an update and speak about North End Sketchclub.
Rob Flynn from Road Studios will show you a ‘virtual art gallery’ game called Occupy White Walls.
But we’d love to add to it if anyone has anything to share? If you are an individual OR an organisation please get in touch if you’d like to share something yourself or if you’d just like us to mention an opportunity on your behalf.
Here are some things you might want to present about:
Opportunities for artists during lockdown
What you have been doing during lockdown – any inspiration or advice.
Funding opportunities during lockdown
Ways to promote or display your work during lockdown
Opportunities or ideas for engaging with other artists during lockdown.
Maybe something else that doesn’t have anything to do with lockdown!
