Let’s Be Frank is a series of talks geared toward engaging artists and local businesses on realistic business practices in the Bay Area art community.

For our first talk we Have Alfonso Cosio from the Oakland Art Enthusiast.

Cosio will touch base on important subjects like:
-Artists / Gallery Relationships
-Smart practices for creatively engaged businesses
-How to represent yourself as an artist in the industry including alternative routes to galleries and selling under their guidelines.
-The direction and trajectory of the art market
-A look into the mind of collectors and dealers
-End with a Q&A

If you are a business owner wanting to engage a creative community by getting into the arts, a collector looking to start or add to your collection, or an artist trying to market yourself to collectors and galleries, this is a must attend event for valuable insight into the art market as it is now and a forecast of what may come. There are few resources like this in the Bay Area for artists and enthusiasts, we hope you can be involved for our first talk.
