First Thursdays: Social Media for Artists – Workshop

Start your weekend off early— join us for First Thursdays, a monthly workshop and networking series hosted by the Northern Manhattan Arts Alliance!

Designed to foster connections and professional growth, the series alternates between community-based and artist-focused events.

Each session provides a platform for local artists, creatives, and community members to engage, share resources, and develop skills. 

Whether it’s a hands-on workshop or an educational panel, First Thursdays aims to strengthen the cultural fabric of Northern Manhattan by encouraging collaboration and support within the arts community.

Join surrealist artist Ruthy Valdez for an insightful workshop focused on using social media to grow your art career. 

Ruthy will guide you through Instagram best practices, from optimizing your profile to mastering hashtags and stories. You’ll also explore how to leverage TikTok’s unique features to create viral content, engage your audience, and build a following. Learn the art of creating compelling, shareable posts and discover the power of LinkedIn for connecting with art professionals and potential collaborators. 

This workshop will equip you with the tools to effectively navigate the digital landscape, engage your community, and promote your art with confidence.
