Thriving Artists Podcast Thrive Together Network

In this episode, we open up about a topic that is not frequently discussed among artists: rejection! Artists are always applying to things such as shows, residencies, or grants. And rejection is just going to happen! We really believe we need more transparency in the art world and talking about rejection is certainly an area where we need to know we are not alone. It’s not easy to discuss when things don’t go our way and yet, being open helps us connect with others and move through the world with integrity. It can be so encouraging to know that you aren’t the only one who feels a sense of failure. 

So, join us for Episode #72 of the Thriving Artists Podcast, How to Recover from Rejection as an Artist, to talk about the process of going through those pesky rejections. We believe how we handle rejection is important, so tune in to own your artist identity and the inevitable rejection that comes with it!

This episode is going to be a game-changer for all you artists out there! As artists, we pour our hearts and souls into our exhibitions. But the magic doesn't have to stop when the show does. We want our members and our listeners to show their work and then continue to benefit from this effort long after the show is done.

Sometimes you put all your effort into making the work but you forget that actually accomplishing your goals for your exhibition aren’t just about making the work, often there are admin related tasks you need to do that will really give you the results you want from your show! So tune in to Episode #71 of the Thriving Artists Podcast, 5 Ways to Get the Most Out of Your Exhibitions as we talk strategies for maximizing each exhibition.

This episode covers a topic close to our hearts, as we believe in embracing and owning our identities as artists! For some reason it can be a struggle for artists to use the title “artist” until they have achieved certain goals or a specific “level” of achievement.

However, we can fall into the trap of always needing to meet a new goal before we find the confidence to validate ourselves and claim the artist identity, putting it off indefinitely. So we are here to encourage you to start doing it now! Tune into Episode #69 of the Thriving Artists Podcast, 5 Reasons You Need to Call Yourself an Artist.

We are here for you, we are cheering you on, and we believe in the work you are doing as thriving artists!  Join the Thrive Together Network to build your network of support! Visit www.thrivetogethernetwork.com to learn more!
