What should I do when I'm completely new to art marketing and don't know where to start?

Attend every type of educational session available to you and actively listen—don’t just have them on in the background. Sit in on strategy sessions, office hours, and training webinars even if you don’t have specific questions. By listening to other artists’ questions and the answers they receive, you’ll pick up the vocabulary, understand the processes, and learn what questions to ask. Pay attention to the terminology and distinctions so you can clearly articulate what you need help with later. If you hear something you don’t understand, ask for clarification in the chat right away.
