Should I post about my gallery event on social media even though I'm far away from the gallery location?

Absolutely. Posting about your gallery participation generates awareness and builds authority and trust. Even if your audience isn’t local to the gallery, it shows you’re a professional artist exhibiting in established venues. Share reels announcing the event, show your work installed in the gallery, and express your excitement. The worst outcome is lower engagement on that post; the best outcome is increased visibility, credibility, and potentially new followers or buyers. Always go ahead and share these milestones—it’s great marketing.
