How to Successfully Give an Art Workshop
Highly skilled artists often receive requests from individuals and organizations to hold workshops. During these workshops, they are asked to demonstrate how to successfully create a work of art. In order to do this, artists much be adequately prepared and well organized. They must be able to perform their craft so that participants can mimic their motions. In the following, you will find some tips and suggestions for successfully giving an art workshop.
Choose something that all attending can be successful in creating. Most artists stick with something rather simple.
Prepare all of the needed materials ahead of time.
Make sure that any literature that will be used is secured together for easy use and distribution.
Place all materials on the individual tables. Make sure each table is equipped with the same items.
Greet your participants warmly.
Ask politely for everyone’s attention before beginning. Request that every participant gives you undivided attention without anything in their hands.
Never begin speaking until all participants are silent.
Once there is complete attentiveness and no one is speaking, you should introduce yourself. Give information about what your will doing and how you will be doing it.
Make sure participants have some sort of schedule by which to follow. You may include this in the literature or on a board that can be well viewed by all in the room.
Allow everyone to introduce themselves. You may want to ask them to tell a little something about themselves as well.
You should explain the steps that you are planning. Only a brief description of each should be given.
Each step should be demonstrated.
After demonstrating the step, allow participants to perform the step.
While each step is being performed by participants, you should walk through the room and offer help to promote success.
As you walk, try asking if anyone needs help of any kind. Let them know that they are free to ask you.
Never draw or paint on a participant’s surface. You may use a sheet of paper or another surface.
Wait until each participant has completely finished a step before you move to the next one.
Once the demonstration is complete and everyone has finished their project, all supplies should be put away.
You may ask participants to bring forth their pieces for critiquing. This should be a on a voluntary basis. Allow other participants to comment on pieces as well.
You should advise individuals not to make any comments that are negative about the work of others.
As the workshop nears its end, you should review each step with participants. This will help them to retain information about your demonstration much better.
