I'm teaching a workshop called "Web Design Planning for Artists," at the Arlington Center for the Arts, and also at the Danforth Museum of Art.
Besides creating mixed media art, I also have a small web design company called "Thread Media." Most of my business is with artists, but I also work with small companies and organizations.
I've noticed over the years that most people have no idea where to start, when they've come to the decision that they want a website.
Because of this , I am teaching this three hour workshop that explains the basics of how to get started in planning a website. The information I'm going to cover will help anyone who wants to create a site on their own or can use as a guide if they hire a designer. Some of the topics will include general costs, web hosting, domain names, image prep, planning pages and menus, and also a little about blogs. No computer experience is necessary, since this is not a programming workshop. It's a planning workshop.
If you're in the Boston area, and don't know how to get started planning your website, check out the following information.
