Since I’ve started working at the Southwest School of Art & Craft back in December, a few artists have told me that marketing is not their strong suit. When I mention Social Media and how easily it integrates with their everyday lives, many people say they need to get into that, but don’t know where to start. If this is you, listen up: the first ever arts tweetup in San Antonio will take place March 2. What’s a tweetup? Glad you asked.

Tweetups usually involve good food (sometimes a few choice beverages) and great conversation. Typically you’ll notice half of the people there are simultaneously carrying on conversations online using smartphones or laptops, but don’t let that intimidate you. You’ll find a great bunch of people who love to socialize eager to share loads of tips and information. Think of it as a typical scene from Cheers but with some ’shop talk.’  The fact that this time they want to talk about art in a tweetup in San Antonio is magnificent.

Think different in San Antonio and be among the first to attend this exciting shindig. Get more information and RSVP here. You’ll be glad you did.

Once you go, please please(pretty please?) share what you thought of it or learned from the event  in a comment below. We are hoping to make this type of information more available to artists in San Antonio, so share away!
