Not a show, but...

[Julianna]

...I've joined the Board of Directors for CARFAC Ontario (http://www.carfacontario.ca/about/board_of_directors), which is an artist advocacy group.

[Tired Iron]

Congratulations! Your involvement in art advocacy is something to be proud of and your contributions to this website have been extremely helpful, as I am sure many here will agree! When 's the party? What shall I bring? :D

Way to go, Julianna!

What does your group have in store for the coming year?
Or more specifically, what would you like to see done for artists?

[Julianna]

Thanks, T.I. No party, but you can enjoy a drink in celebration if you want :D

We've got a few things planned, but mostly quiet events. They're ramping up on the number of professional development and health & safety workshops this year. The biggest thing is probably trying to get the Status of the Artist (http://www.macac.on.ca/src/en/index.aspx) legislation passed...or at least not ignored! :rolleyes:

I wish your CARFAC's scope can cover the whole world. Change it to UNCARFAC. And make it effective.

[Julianna]

It'd be great to see more artists' groups that focus on advocacy and professionalism. Groups that give their members access to member-only shows can only go so far without adequate attention to managing art as a business.

Although I haven't done a throrough search, it seems that groups that promote art and artists are abundant, but ones that provide support to artist on things like contracts and money (questions we see here often) are few and far between.

If you ever want to start up a group in Singapore, I'm sure CARFAC would help you get started!
