Following her new publication, renowned writer and art critic Hettie Judah will lead a workshop designed to debunk the art world and give practical and supportive insight into how it all works. Can you make it without going to art school? Can you get back into the art world after years away? What does ‘success’ actually mean? How to Enter the Art World… is a grown-up guide for any artist or creative whose life is complicated, demanding and well, human. Informed by years spent working with artists and with dozens of candid but anonymous interviews with art world insiders, it is a myth-busting bonanza full of insights, ideas and inspiration. Frank, funny and occasionally forthright this book is your friend on the path (back) into the art world. 

The workshop will start with very short presentations by several artists who will volunteer to present their work to the group, Hettie will then sit in the middle of a circle made by the audience and answer any questions and feedback on the work presented as a starting point to questions from the wider group. Audience participation is encouraged but not required!
