GUANTE: Navigating Media (Social, Local and National) for Artists and Musicians - Pre-registration required Making great art is only half the battle. As independent musicians, writers and artists of all kinds, we also have to work to get it heard, and this means being able to navigate the sometimes confusing universe of media. This workshop will be about building a foundation to do just that. What social networks are most vital and how does one cultivate a presence on them? How does one get reviewed by local blogs and newspapers? How does one write up a one-sheet and get it into the hands of the right people? Join hip hop artist and two-time National Poetry Slam champion Guante for an interactive, resource-sharing discussion and workshop on these issues and more. Pre-registration required. GUANTE / Kyle Tran Myhre is a hip hop artist, two-time National Poetry Slam champion, social justice activist, educator and writer. He and/or his work has appeared on Upworthy, MSNBC, Racialicious, Feministing, MPR, the Progressive, City Pages’ “Artists of the Year” list and URB Magazine’s “Next 1000” list. He's shared bills with Talib Kweli, Saul Williams, Brother Ali, Dead Prez, Sage Francis, Andrea Gibson, Doomtree, Zion I and many more. Guante also founded the MN Activist Project and Hip Hop Against Homophobia concert series, writes a regular column at Opine Season, and facilitates writing/performance workshops for youth. When
