Monthly Media Guides

Monthly content works differently for artists, galleries, and arts nonprofits, and these guides cover that difference directly: why an artist and their gallery should not post the same thing, what a nonprofit's board and donor updates need beyond public social, how to sequence a carousel of artwork so people reach the last image.

Find the guide for your kind of feed. Some cover a format, like captions for artwork posts or a recurring interview series. Others cover a structural question, like running one gallery's social across two locations without repeating yourself.
