Every show you've been in deserves a place on your page: gallery shows, art fairs, festivals, screenings, online exhibitions. Each one becomes an entry on your page, like a line on a CV — with the room photographs, the pieces that were shown, and links to the press.

Questions people ask
Does anyone check my exhibitions?
Exhibitions are your own entries. The photographs, the work and the links to the venue and press are what make them believable to visitors — so add them when you can.
A piece I added to a show doesn't appear
Only public pieces are shown to visitors. If a piece is private, it stays in the show on your dashboard but is hidden on your page.
