Using AI Effectively and Ethically to Boost Your Organizational Work
AI can feel like a minefield of ethical concerns and bad practices, but (perhaps unfortunately) it's not going away any time soon. So, what are the ways you can use it to boost your project or organization's impact and ensure your own time and energy are going to the places where they're needed. In this workshop we'll take a look at the AI ecosystem and its ethics, ways that cultural creators and organizers can integrate AI tools into their workflow, and where AI is likely to be going next. We will also talk about the evolving legal realities around AI and content creators with an eye towards how they could impact artists. Finally, we'll look at practical ways to use AI, tips on how to get it to work right, and all the ways it will do completely nonsensical things.

Website Building: Showcase Your Artistic Story and Visual Identity
In this workshop, facilitated by Kyle DeVries, we will start with the most important question: what stories does your website need to tell? From there, we will map out the information and content for your website as well as create a visual identity brief that will guide your aesthetics. Homework after this session will include working on your "about" statement and pulling together visual content.
