Art Curation/ Event Planning- 1
2022/ Spectra
Role:
Gallery Co-Director
Date: February- March 2022

Roles and Activities
In this position, I planned, organized, and synthesized our team’s vision, and then communicated it to various sources such as members at the Stratford School and other Creators Collective Directors. I also implemented funding applications and budget requests for the event and used my visual design skills to curate the online exhibition collaboratively with the Creators Collective team.
In addition to the mentioned roles, I performed marketing activities such as emailing UWaterloo representatives to promote the event and, acting as an event spokesperson by doing an Instagram takeover and publishing on student public forums. In these Instagram takeovers, I answered questions about the event and encouraged students to submit their creative work.
Given my interest in art curating and direction, this experience demonstrates that I can provide a unique management and business angle to art direction and event planning. This sets me apart from other art curators and exhibition planners as I can communicate with like-minded individuals to present a creative thought process meaningfully and empathetically.
