Welcome to INSTAGRAM!
For those who have concerns about Instagram, I'd like to reassure you that Instagram is in no way like Facebook or Twitter. It is not a platform that has live links and it's not a platform that you'll see sharing of political views or conspiracy theories, but rather it is a photo and video sharing platform where some very talented miniaturist have been sharing their fabulous work.
We are using the platform for NAME to attract more members, and in particular a younger membership to move forward into the future. There is no need for you to make posts yourself and you can even keep your account private if you're not posting anything yourself. Even with a private account you can still view the work of NAME and many other talented miniaturists. I have a lot of people with private profiles that are following my personal account on Instagram.
As promised here is a link to a number of Instagram accounts that are worth looking at. I've added NAME's Instagram site at the top and my own just below it. Just to put things into perspective, I didn't start sharing anything on my account until I started adding content to the NAME account. I had an account but I had kept it private and used it to follow other talented miniaturists. But once I started posting for NAME I wanted something to benchmark my NAME work against, so I started using my own account for the benchmark. In that time I've grown my own account to over 1700 followers, all due to people commenting and liking my posts. I need our group to do the same for the NAME Instagram page in order to get the NAME organization out to newer miniaturists. It's the engagement that makes us grow and not simply the posts we do.
For anyone who is thinking, what's in this for me, why do I need an Instagram account, will you don't. But if you love your hobby and want to see NAME growing into the future you can help. And as a bonus in doing so, you'll also see the work of some very talented miniaturist.
