sell work at art fairs and through the online shop.
Training: Via the Step Up programme, Outside In offers courses designed
to help you develop skills and confidence, leading to the possibility of paid
employment as workshop facilitators, researchers and curators.
Publicity: Outside In is all about showcasing talent and providing a
platform for this to be seen. There are many ways you can share your story and
art, from writing for the Outside In blog and being featured as Artist of the

What benefits are there to having an online gallery?
An online gallery allows you to have a digital presence, you will get a weblink
which you can share and receive comments on your artwork. Your online gallery
is just that, a space for you to curate and showcase your creative journey.

attending an Artist Support Day for one-to-one assistance to information events
