Behind the Seen with Netvvrk Founder Paddy Johnson

In the second episode of Behind the Seen, Carrie chats with Paddy Johnson,  the founder of Netvvrk, a membership that helps artists get the shows, grants, and residencies of their dreams by broadening their professional networks. Over the last two years, members have received over a million dollars in grants. Netvvrk has been featured in The New York Times, Hyperallergic, and Artnet News.From Carrie:"The first time I spoke to Paddy Johnson, she interviewed me for her podcast, Art Problems. And this time, we reversed the rules because I wanted to find out all about Netvvrk, her platform which is a membership-based network, to help artists get ahead. Now, it's part professional development, part mentorship, part Andy Warhol's factory for the digital age. And I mean that seriously, because I think what Paddy has done with Netvvrk is create a space where artists can help support one another, where they can grow, where they can talk about their successes, their failures. And so it literally is what Warhol might have been trying to do with the factory, a place where artists can be vulnerable, can be open, and can support one another. Patty Johnson is doing a great thing. And this interview will make that plain as day."Sign up for Paddy's live Masterclass: https://makeartanyway.netThanks for listening to this episode of the Seen podcast.Liked what you heard?
