The world of opportunites available through the Internet for artists and artisans is growing each day! There are infinite opportunities for artists to market and sell their products and services online. It's easy when you focus on your target market, have help sorting through all the hype, and learn to select and use the right tools.

You are invited to join Kristine Maltrud and Carla Rachkowski from The Global Center for Cultural Entrepreneurship and Fast Foward New Mexico for a presentation that could help you grow your business.

Come see this demonstration on the cool and effective things different artists and artisans are doing using Internet and social media tools and find out how you can learn to do these things, too! Both members and non-members of the Rio Rancho Art Association are invited.

Fast Forward New Mexico is a grant-funded program that will be offering free hands-on Internet training classes at the Loma Colorado Main Library in Rio Rancho in March and April.
The Small Business Success class series is designed for people starting or growing small businesses, particularly in the arts and cultural markets.
Taught by Kristine Maltrud and other instructors with extensive expertise in business, marketing, and the arts, this free training offers four eight-hour Internet business development courses that will teach artists, artisans, and other small business owners to use tools like email, e-commerce, e-marketing and online social media to promote their work.
