The Art & Artists track at JordanCon plays host to some amazing paneling on art as a profession as well as the creative process.
In addition to playing host to most of JordanCon’s Artist Guest of Honor programming, the Art Track has panels ranging from how to’s presented by professional artists on the best ways to run a Patreon, live streaming, to best ways to market your art.
We’ve also got a ton of fun, like JordanCon’s Charity Art Jam, where some of the attending artists compete in a game where they create an original piece of art based off a topic given to them at the beginning of the panel. This art is then auctioned to the attendees, and proceeds go to charity!
