Take Your Art Career to the Next Level!
The Success Summit is an annual 2-day conference for artists that takes place right here at ADC Fine Art in downtown Cincinnati. It’s just for artists like you—busy, hard-working, and trying to take your art career to the next level. We are creating an experience in which artists come together to learn how to succeed in their business, network with gallery owners, interior designers, art consultants, and corporate and private collectors, all the while making lifelong connections. We want to give you a forum for making a great impression on potential clients, gallery owners, and industry experts.
Attendees can pick and choose as many workshops and presentations you would like and receive portfolio and website reviews from the ADC team. Breakfast and lunch is provided on Thursday and Friday along with a special happy hour at the closure of the last day.
As an extra bonus, you will receive a complimentary ticket to our annual Art Comes Alive exhibition, awards ceremony and Gala (valued at $100).
