As Co-Founder and Curator of Hang it, I developed this online platform, designed to help young people who are interested in working in the art world. Hang it is a brand new, open-access resource created by four recent graduates dedicated to making the art world more accessible by building a helpful community. It includes audio interviews with friendly people in the arts, useful resources, glossaries, and written reflections on art.
