Abbey Hendrickson

9:30am-5:00pm; $550

*This course is available for 3 Undergraduate or 2 Graduate credits. http://www.brockport.edu/ssp/summer/

How can arts professionals best utilize social media? Using professional standards, students will explore, analyze, and critically engage in a broad range of social media platforms, including Facebook, Twitter, Flickr, Pinterest, Blogger, etc. Students will learn how to define and effectively communicate their individual social media goals, and work collaboratively to determine and implement successful social networking strategies.

There is no prerequisite for this course, but an in-depth understanding of digital equipment/computers/software is required and a working knowledge of various social media platforms is helpful.

Artist and blogger, Abbey Hendrickson, lives in Owego, New York with her husband and their two children. She earned a BFA from SUNY College at Brockport in 2004 and an MFA in Visual Studies from the University at Buffalo in 2009. Hendrickson writes a daily lifestyle blog called Aesthetic Outburst, chronicling the adventures of her little family and the renovation of their 1800’s farmhouse. Her artwork can be found in Drawn In by Julia Rothman; State of Craft by Victoria Woodcock and Cigalle Hanaor; and Old School: Art Inspired by the Aesthetics of 20th Century Education by Janine Vangool. Hendrickson has also been a guest contributor on several popular blogs, including sfgirlbybay, Poppytalk, and A Beautiful Mess. Her book You are Awesome, published by Cicada Books, will be released in fall 2012.
