This three-hour website study hall with Anniessa Antar offers artists dedicated time and space to work independently on websites they have already started, with an emphasis on the Squarespace platform.
This is not a workshop or one-on-one website tutorial. Participants will work on their own sites alongside a small group, with the facilitator available throughout the session for brief individual check-ins, troubleshooting and feedback. Participants will be able to sign up for approximately 15-30 minutes with the facilitator during the three-hour session, on a first-come-first-serve basis, depending on attendance and availability.
This session is best suited for artists who already have a completed or mostly completed website and are looking for light assistance, feedback or troubleshooting to help move it toward completion, especially with topics such as page layout and site navigation, uploading and organizing images, and other basic settings. It is not intended for building a website from scratch or providing extensive technical support.
Participants should bring a laptop, and arrive with an active website account, login information, and any images or text they plan to use. Plan to spend most of the three-hour session working independently on your website, with Anniessa available for targeted help as needed.
Registration
Advance registration is required. Space is limited to 6 artists to allow for individualized support.
