I am a professional artist who has been showing my work for 8 years. I have exhibited in both fine art and craft fairs, and have recently added gallery representation to local art stores.
I have used social media as a way to promote my art since the beginning of my career. I use Twitter, Facebook, Pinterest, Instagram and Tumblr to promote my work. In this article I will give you some pointers on how to promote your next art show through social media.
Many artists find themselves asking the question: How do I promote my art show? With many artists having college degrees, it can be easy to forget that social media is still a new concept to some people.
Many gallery owners and event coordinators feel that Facebook, Twitter, and other social media channels are not an effective way of promoting a show. The fear of using social media as a way to promote art can be traced back to its limitations in the past. However, there are many ways to make social media work for you.
I have recently been asked how I promote my own work and exhibits through various social media channels. The following is a step-by-step guide on how I promote an art show. This blog will focus on promoting an exhibit through Facebook, Twitter, and a website.*

The thing about social media is that it’s not really that “social” at all. It’s a way to make your art available to a wider audience and it’s a way to connect with other artists who are trying to do the same thing.
This can be extremely helpful if you’re trying to promote an art show. Usually, the best way to do this is by word of mouth, but sometimes you can get even more exposure by bringing your work into the social media world.
Here are some tips for you to use when promoting an art show through social media:
There are many ways to promote an art show. One of the best, but least used is social media. I have promoted shows on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram with great results.
Social Media allows for a lot of interaction with people who are interested in your art or upcoming art show. You can build up a following and keep in contact with your fans. The best way to do this is by sharing information about you and your art. You can also post pictures of past events with you involved in them, so that people can get a feel for what you are about and what types of art you like.
You can also try to get other artists to share their work through social media as well, which will help them gain exposure as well as yourself.
Another thing that I like to do is let fans know where they will be able to see my work before the event starts, so that they don’t miss out on it. A lot of artists promote their shows by using flyers and posters, but this doesn’t always guarantee that people will actually see them; sometimes they just throw them away or don’t pay attention to them when walking past them in public areas.**
What are some of the most effective ways to promote your art show? In this article, we’re going to cover a few techniques that you can use to generate interest in your upcoming art show.
First of all, let’s discuss the obvious. Make sure you’ve got a website. At least make sure that you’ve got a Facebook page and a Twitter account for yourself. In this day and age, not having a Twitter account for your art show is like not having an email address in 2006-2007. If you already have one, but it’s not being used, then start tweeting about your upcoming art show as well as other things. Don’t spam people, but be sure to share some photos and other info about your art. Your followers on Twitter will appreciate it, and they’ll also be more likely to share news about you with their friends.
Another thing that you should do is get on Google+. It’s not as popular as Facebook or Twitter yet, but it has more potential than either of those two platforms. Get some friends up there and use it to promote your art show as well as other kinds of local events in your area. The more you engage in conversation with others on Google+, the more people will start noticing who you are. As with
You’re throwing an art opening and you’re expecting a lot of people to come. So you might as well throw in some social media promotion, too.
You want your art show to get on the map, so to speak, because if it does, more people will come and see your art. If you’re doing this for a cause, the publicity could mean more donations for the cause. And if you’re doing this for yourself, it could mean more business down the road.
Here are some ways to go about your social media promotion:
1. Do your research. Check out some similar shows online and see what they do and how they do it. You can find out what kind of posts work best by looking at popular pages that already have many followers.
2. Post from multiple accounts. This is tricky because you don’t want to annoy people by posting too much from one account or make it seem like you have multiple personalities by posting from different accounts that appear to be independent of each other (unless of course that’s what you’re going for). But if you post just once or twice a day from each account, it’ll give you a good chance of reaching your target audience without seeming like a complete spammer.*
