"Mark has done something very special with The Arts & Culture Network. For my £10 each month I've gained additional exposure worldwide, I've made new friends, and found work, and I have felt the heartfelt support of Mark himself."

Full member benefits
The Interview.
I'll interview you on Zoom, publish that to our YouTube and SoundCloud channels, our podcast, and embed the interview in a highly search optimised profile we will write about you for our website.
We'll then promote that to the 800k monthly users of our 8 LinkedIn groups . We'll re-promote and re-record annually. All done-for-you in just 30 minutes. Watch examples here.
The Connections.
In a 30-minute call on Zoom you can tell me about the people you'd like to meet in our global community of over 100,000. (E.g. gallery curators in New York or theatre directors in London.)
​
I'll find them, copy and paste them into a Word file and send it to you during the meeting. You can then connect and introduce yourself and you'll have both me and our community in common.
A profile in ART Magazine
Art Magazine is published by our full member and artist Zita Vilutyte at Anima Mundi Academia, a partner of The Arts and Culture Network.
​
​As a full member, active in any creative art form, visual or otherwise, you may request a profile in the magazine which we will write, with examples of your work. You may then use the profile in your own PR.
​
500 hard copies of the magazine are sent every month to several institutions, such as galleries, libraries, museums and academic organisations.
In addition, PDF copies are shared, which reach several thousand further professionals around the world.
​
​
The Shout Outs.
I host 4 free networking events each month for members in Europe, The Americas, Asia Pacific (on Zoom), and in-person in London.
As a full member you can introduce yourself to all our guests during our meeting. We typically welcome 40-50 guests at these events and guests have been hired at them.
​
The schedule is here.
Nomination for Fellowship of The Royal Society of Arts
As a full member, you may request nomination for Fellowship of The Royal Society of Arts in London and add the acronym FRSA after your name if you wish. Fellowship is typically £208 per year with a registration fee of £75.
However, if I nominate you, the registration fee is waived and the annual membership fee is reduced by 25% to £156 per annum for life. The total saving is £127, more than the annual cost of ACN full membership.
Brand, marketing, and career development advice.
I'm a brand and marketing consultant, a Fellow of the Chartered Institute of Marketing and the Royal Society of Arts with over 25 years' experience helping people and businesses capture and communicate what makes them special.
I also provide career development advice to those new to our industry or needing a new direction.
​
I make this expertise available free of charge to our full members when they need it. More about my brand workshop here.
