Build Your Artist Website:
The Complete On-Demand Course
Start the new year with a website you're proud to share
Your outdated website is costing you opportunities. Every time you have to send someone to your site for a grant application or residency, you cringe a little.
This course helps established contemporary artists create (or completely overhaul) a professional website that actually serves your career—without the overwhelm, the perfectionism spiral, or the tech panic.
Built from a 4-week workshop, reorganized into digestible modules you can tackle at your own pace.
WHAT YOU'LL LEARN
-
Most artists jump straight into templates and get stuck choosing fonts. Starting with strategy means you build something that actually works for your goals—residencies, grants, exhibitions, or just having a home base you control.
-
A beautiful site that confuses curators is useless. This section ensures people can actually do what you need them to do: view your work, download your CV, contact you about opportunities.
-
This is where you actually build the thing. Step-by-step walkthroughs using Squarespace (recommended for most artists), covering everything from organizing your images to building portfolio pages that show your practice honestly.
-
The difference between "functional" and "professional" is in the details. Mobile optimization, basic SEO, header/footer refinement—the finishing touches that make your site look like you know what you're doing.
-
Launching isn't the end. Learn how to test before going live, announce your new site, and keep it updated without it taking over your life.

You already have a functional website that serves your career goals well
