2021 Online events
BoothCentral – SOS weekend, May 1 & 2
- During SOS weekend, we will go live online at BoothCentral. On this platform, artists will have a permanent “booth” of images, videos, and links to their websites or online stores.
- Artists can choose to be available for video chats with visitors during the event. Visitors can request a chat by clicking on a button in your booth.
- Some artists will also livestream during the event. If you’re interested, sign up at the form here.
- For more on how BoothCentral works and tips on participating, visit the SOS BoothCentral page.
Video Tours on YouTube
- As in 2020, we invite artists to record video tours of their studio spaces or their artistic process. It is a simple way to replace that ‘in-person’ experience.
- You can also use your video in your BoothCentral booth during the event!
- You must be a registered SOS 2021 artist to participate.
- Your video can be as simple or as complicated as you wish! Talk about your process, laugh into the camera, do a short and strange art video (with your artwork in it!), or all of the above. The purpose is to introduce yourself to the visitors.
- Check out the Artist videos page for ideas for your personal interview, a simple tutorial on making a video, how and where to send your video, and other questions.
- Submit the video to us at using any of the addresses on the Video Tips page.
