Pictures of People: Activating Your Creative Community
Alice Neel referred to her paintings as “pictures of people,” rather than portraits, emphasizing the humanity of her sitters. In our Pictures of People digital activation, we invited our community to submit their own creative “pictures of people” to engage with our Alice Neel: People Come First retrospective at the de Young museum. Taking Pictures of People as a case study, we’ll look at the work and collaboration that went into putting the activation together, the reasons for its success, and key takeaways around engaging and collaborating with your creative community.
