Sailing South: Seeking Speaking Engagements & Artist Collaborations

As I prepare to sail south from North Carolina, I am excited to announce that I am now booking speaking engagements and artist collaborations along the way. My journey will take me to various destinations along the Southeastern coast, and I’m actively seeking opportunities to engage with art communities, galleries, frame shops, and art centers interested in hosting talks or lectures.

For nearly a decade, I have run a successful photography studio in Northern Michigan, specializing in fine art photography, high-quality printing, digital archiving, and conservation framing. My experience allows me to bring unique insights into both the art and the technical side of photography, and I am particularly passionate about discussing the benefits of proper printing techniques and framing methods to ensure the longevity and preservation of art.

As part of my travels, I am offering to speak about my work in photography and fine art printing, as well as share my personal story of pursuing art while overcoming disabilities. I would love the opportunity to connect with local communities through engaging talks that combine my expertise in conservation framing, photography, and the unique challenges I face as an artist who is sailing the seas.

Our planned stops include:

• Beaufort, NC
• Beaufort, SC
• St. Augustine, FL
• St. Mary’s, GA
• Fort Pierce, FL
• Marathon, FL

In addition to these destinations, I’m open to travel to nearby locations for special engagements. If you own or manage an art center, frame shop, gallery, or other venue that might be interested in hosting a lecture or collaborative event, please feel free to reach out. Whether it’s a discussion about conservation framing and proper printing techniques or an artist talk sharing my experiences as a photographer with disabilities, I’m eager to collaborate and engage with new audiences.

Let’s connect and create meaningful experiences for art enthusiasts in your community. To inquire about booking, feel free to contact me via email or phone. I look forward to hearing from you and exploring new opportunities to share my passion for photography and the art world.

Sincerely,
Joe Clark
