SOCIAL MEDIA IS A POWERFUL TOOL
Social media can be a powerful tool to showcase your creativity, share your artwork, and connect with other artists and art schools. Here are some tips on how to use and curate your social media presence to increase your chances of getting into art school:
Showcase your artwork: Use social media platforms such as Instagram, Tumblr, or Pinterest to showcase your artwork. Be consistent in posting and use hashtags relevant to your artwork, as this can help you reach a wider audience.
Show your process: Share your creative process with your followers by posting progress shots or behind-the-scenes glimpses of your work. This can give insight into your creative process and show your dedication to your craft.
Engage with the art community: Engage with other artists, art schools, and art organizations by commenting and liking their posts. This can help you build connections and get noticed by the art community.
Follow art schools and programs: Follow art schools and programs that interest you on social media. This can help you learn about their programs, application deadlines, and events.
Curate your content: Curate your social media content to showcase your best work and highlight your artistic strengths. Avoid posting controversial or inappropriate content that could reflect poorly on you.
Use social media to research art schools: Use social media to research art schools and learn about their programs, student life, and alumni achievements. This can help you make an informed decision when applying to schools.
Maintain professionalism: Remember to maintain professionalism on social media, as admissions committees may review your profiles as part of the application process. Avoid posting content that could reflect poorly on you or your application.
