Where can I find someone to interview about art as a high school student?

I need to interview at least four people about art for my English class’ “what if project.” I would like them to be professionals in the field of interest whether that be staff at a museum or professors of art history. However, I’ve emailed a lot of people and have gotten no responses after a few weeks. I need these interviews relatively soon but I’m not sure who would agree. Do you have any advice?

The interview would be based around “what if art was the primary way we measured progress in society and how this would change our priorities and the kind of legacy we would leave behind for the future?”

Might our “what if” question be the reason we aren’t getting any responses?

Hi Zoey,

I'm an artist and designer with experience in many areas. I'm starting a new business that might fit what you're looking into. I may not have the specific qualifications you want, but I'm happy to help if you need someone to interview.

If you're interested, please connect with me on LinkedIn.

Good luck!

Kim

Hey there!

I would suggest going to some local art museums and asking for an interview in person. As you already know emailing almost never works:)

If there are no art museums around, you; you could always try a phone interview.

You can create a LinkedIn account to connect with people. Visit an art gallery in person, call them first, or send an email to see what happens. College galleries are usually the easiest to reach. If you're in Irvine, try checking out UCI to see if they have an art gallery, then visit and talk to the staff. Remember, college galleries often close early, so check their hours.

There's a club called AIGA that you can find online. They might be able to help you with your situation.

Email or talk to your teacher. Show them what you've done so far and ask for suggestions on how to contact professionals.

Try doing all these things at once to save time, as you might not have much of it. I know this can be frustrating, but keep going and you'll be fine.
