So much insight, inspiration and honest dialogue about creativity and growth.

Creatives need to learn how to present and pitch their work. Anyone interfacing with your work needs to understand your work as well as you do.

Please share, bookmark, and *retweet so other artists see it*. Let’s spread the knowledge and not gate keep it. Opportunities are always around the corner, it’s a great time to build up your exhibition & residency history and get your work out there.

I’ve looked through each call but as always DYOR, read the details and requirements of each call to determine if the opportunity is right for you. (I hold no affiliation with these calls.)

Thank you to the teams at @shillrxyz and @timepieces for including these opportunities in their newsletters!

Seat down with the kids, listen to their voices & hear their thoughts. These aren’t just the future of our nation, they are the hope that keeps it alive. Protecting them should be top priority for all of is #ChildProtection #EndEarlyMarriages #EndTeenagePregnancies #EndDefilenent

[Wezi Mhone @WeziVMhone]

Many want to see you fail, not because they dislike you but because your attempt exposes their fear of trying.
