Diane Brown is a visionary curator that founded an organization (RxART) which commissions artists to create art for hospitals that can help children and others feel better when walking into rooms with big scary machinery like MRI Scanners. She is always looking for artists to work with!

A few weeks ago, we had the privilege of hosting Diane Brown at a Praxis Roundtable  -- a weekly Zoom call where Praxis students meet and interact with influential collectors, curators and gallerists. 

Here are some highlights from that Roundtable:

• Video Clip 1: She is talking about her journey to bring museum-quality art into hospitals to help patients escape emotionally from illness or injury. Initially facing skepticism, she convinced one philanthropist to support her idea. After a successful trial, more hospitals showed interest, although some doubted the motives behind offering the art for free.
• Video Clip 2: She is talking about the growing awareness of the holistic nature of healing in hospitals. Art plays a significant role in creating a cheerful environment, giving patients hope, and reducing the length of hospital stays. While there is increasing interest in art and healing, convincing people was more challenging when she started 23 years ago.
• Video Clip 3. She is talking about the process of commissioning artists for hospital projects. After reaching agreements with hospitals and artists like Jonas Wood, proposals are submitted. Challenges arise when hospital committees offer opinions, but she advocates for artists and emphasizes the educational aspect of their art in healthcare.

As I wrap up this email I want you to take a moment and think really hard about this: 

Diana Brown can put your art in a hospital and pay for it -  if she likes what you are doing, and then your art is literally making a big difference in countless lives that enter the hospital.

Would you like to meet her?

As a Praxis member, you can!

• You get access to Diane Brown’s contact information - as well as the private contact details of 180+ other prestigious collectors, curators and art dealers…
   
• When you enroll, you get access to the full, 1-hour recording of our Roundtable with Diane Brown. The insights Diane shared will help you understand how you can make a proposal to her and show her your work. 
   
• In addition, as a Praxis member you also get to meet a new art world insider like Diane Brown every single week, live, at our Praxis Roundtable, which is a Zoom call with a different collector or curator each week… 
   
• You’ll get my assistance to effectively reach out to the movers and shakers you meet at these Roundtables. I’ll give you two letter templates you can use, so that you don’t have to worry about what to say and will have a better chance of getting a response back.
   
• Best part? You can ask me to personally edit these emails and letters before you send them out to make sure that they are compelling and you don’t get ghosted.

Plus: you also get personal access to me, Brainard Carey, and a suite of educational guides on topics ranging from grant writing to social media tactics and getting feedback on your art.

That said, I’m willing to bet that if you ONLY showed up for the weekly Praxis Roundtables over Zoom and met the collectors, curators and dealers that are there, without doing ANYTHING else, you will at the very least 3X your investment right away. 

Which is why I offer a money back guarantee if you are not happy.
