About this event:
This hybrid session, offered both in person as well as via Zoom, is designed to provide artists with an overview of social media basics, tips, tricks and how-tos for creatives looking to sharpen their presence across multiple platforms.
Peer-to-Peer Sessions is a free and accessible (mostly) online series geared to enrich, educate, and connect creatives through a series of workshops and training sessions. New Bedford is the home of artists, creatives, change makers, designers, entrepreneurs and community enthusiasts and the Peer-to-Peer Sessions embraces the pulse that makes New Bedford so unique while expanding our knowledge and connections.
Funding for this initiative is provided by the City of New Bedford, Arts, Culture and Tourism Fund. Additional support comes from the Barr Foundation and Bristol County Savings Bank, and by the New Bedford Economic Development Council, which receives support in part from the National Endowment for the Arts, a federal agency. Peer-to-Peer Sessions is one component of a larger initiative to support arts-based economic development.
