Making the most of Twitter
The Twitter Algorithm is a nuanced tool that manages the engagement of users on the platform. Kino, a subject matter expert, is joining me for an exclusive webinar on the subject to teach everyone in The Art of Selling Art the keys to unlocking the power of the algorithm.

What is a Twitter Space?
Think of a Twitter Space as a cross between a live podcast and a chatroom. It is an audio-only conversation accompanied by shared tweets and the ability to view and be viewed by all participants and listeners.
Spaces act like networking events and catalysts for artists seeking the opportunity to share their work and be seen by collectors.
For artists in Spaces, working up the courage to request to speak and share your story or pitch your art is one of the most difficult challenges for artists in Spaces. I recommend joining "hang out" spaces first. These Spaces have no other purpose than to be human together. Converse and make friends, and you’ll find speaking on "stage" isn’t scary and that there are people who want to hear you.
When following the guide below, it is vital to note that this is what people will see when they tap on your avatar icon in a Twitter Space. A prospective collector will see a header image, a profile photo, and only 2 lines of text. Do your best to ensure that this first impression is the best that it can be.
