Have you ever struggled trying to write your biography, or to craft an elevator pitch to people at a networking session about yourself and your work? If you are keen to learn new ways of how you can write a succinct bio and pitch your project effectively to appeal to partners and presenters, then this workshop is for you. Led by master storyteller Kamini Ramachandran, in this tailor-made workshop for the arts community, you will learn what makes an effective bio and project pitch.
