It was the last day of my internship, and you could not imagine what I was going through here. I actually was doing the totally different thing in my last day. Some of the staffs were send to Strathfield to run promotion for our next Wednesday exhibition by Michael Knight. The reason why we choose Strathfield is that it is not for away from Burwood and most importantly, it is where full of Korean. Though this exhibition rarely involves artworks from Korea, we still hope there would be more Korean taking part in it. Moreover, there is a special program in our gallery is the Art School. This program is all about teaching the children to print and trigger their enthusiasm of art. “The child is really an artist, and the artist should be like a child, but he should not to stay a child. He must become an artist. That means he cannot permit himself to become sentimental or something like that. He must know what he is doing.” it was the slogan in our poster. Very convincing, is not it? The considerate thing is that there would be no worrying of the language barrier, because the gallery has already equipped with Korean teacher so as for easy communication.
What I in charge in this job was to hand out brochures. It was uneasy thing to do that kind of job. Some people would not care about you, and even some throw away the brochures after they received. I was so sorry to see that. Anyway, I think it was a good program for the children. Today passed quickly, although I finished my internship in the gallery, I would like to be a volunteer in the coming exhibition. Hoping everything is going on well next week.
I just completed a round of flyering too! Mine was a little different, instead of handing out flyers to passerby, we did it the B2B (business to business) way. So, we approach stores/cafes etc who are opened to allow us to leave our flyers in their stores/cafes for their customers.
回复删除Even though the flyering was overall fun & successful, I still do get rejections too. Like what you've said, it was a little saddening and disappointing sometimes (haha).
yeah I totally understand what you feel about the respoonse. I did the same thing too. but it doesn't matter whether the peopel receive it or not. all we can handle is to send them out and smile. it sounds little bit tough but we have to get through it. Go GO.
