The third years where preparing for their degree show meeting today so I talked to them about costs of the catalogue and how we dealt with other expenses like posters, invites, boards, lighting and drinks for the pv. I hope I didn’t scare them to much. Although it seems like a lot to do it’s not as difficult as getting the second year show together.
For the second year gallery practice the students have to find a suitable venue and find funding for the event themselves. For the degree show the Willamson Art Gallery hosts the event without charge, so it’s much easier. I remember feeling daunted by it all though but it’s a valuable learning curve. We missed out a student from our catalogue and had to get it fixed at the last minute, it was an absolute nightmare, I’ve definitely learnt my lesson on that one, no double checking anymore, triple or quadruple checking at least!
