I have been considering establishing an online database of art workshops on the Underpaintings blog. I attempted this once before, but the information I was trying to translate into an ongoing calendar quickly became too overwhelming for me to handle (admittedly, I may have also tried to include too much information on each workshop, leading to a work overload for myself). Eventually, the posts just faded away.
It's a new year, however, and I've decided to give it another go. To start, I will list the workshops in a similar manner to how I do the "What's on View" posts about current exhibitions, but I expect that will change over time. I may dedicate a separate page to the workshops later in the year, and over time, it would be nice if I could of course make cross-referencing the data easier (i.e. search by artist, search by state or region, search by price, etc.).
If you are an instructor with an upcoming workshop or a person who operates a facility where workshops are held, and you would like to be included in such a database, please send your information to me at underpaintings@innisfineart.com.
Wish me luck.
