I’ve been reading your post for years, rereading your book for help when I am blocked, and I have been hoping and working towards that one day when I will have my own show, and it’s finally happening! This list is amazing and I am so grateful for all the guidance. The idea to start a pinterest board for visitors is truly inspired and I am excited to give it a try. I think it will bring a new level to the interactions between all the folks involved. Thank you.

What wonderful ideas! I read it when you published it, and now have come back to it and printed it out to refer to. My next shows are coming up in July and October, and this time I’m going to set up a calendar and schedule my posts, so I can do as many of them ahead of time as possible.

I really appreciate all you do for artists, Alyson! Thank you!

Hello Alyson,
I just came across your helpful blog today and I have to admit that I can’t stop reading it! One thing just leads to an other. I am an artist and gallery owner. Finding the time to do it all is challenging and I am grateful for your suggestions on how to manage time and creativity. I wish you were on the east coast. Thank you.

I never realized there was so much involved in putting on an art show. Artists of all kinds now have to be their own promoters. It’s not just about the craft anymore. Great list!

In reply to Lisa Myers Bulmash.

Lisa: Perfect. You’re not taking advantage of the tragedy that happened in N. Charleston, SC. You are empathizing. You’re expanding the conversation. I think it’s so valuable that your art doesn’t exist in a vacuum, but as part of contemporary society.
