Announce a show, a launch or an event

An exhibition, a launch, an open day: whatever it is, your website is where people check the details - dates, venue, opening times. On a bernard-hosted site, announcing it takes one message, not an evening with a page builder.

The prompt

“Announce my [exhibition, launch, open day] on my site: [name] at [venue and address], [dates], [opening times, and private view or preview details if any]. Put it where visitors will see it first.”

Signed in, Get my prompt fills in your site for you. Otherwise press Copy and fill in the [bracketed] parts. First time? Connect your AI to bernard once: Use your own AI (opens in a new tab).

How it works

  1. Connect bernard to your AI (once). Log in to bernard, open your site, go to Use your own AI, and paste the setup prompt into your AI to connect it - a one-time setup.
  2. Paste it into your AI - ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, whichever you already use - then give it the show’s details in your own words, or use the prompt below.
  3. Approve. The AI sends back a preview link. Check the dates and venue are exactly right, press Approve, and the announcement is live.

Give the AI everything from the show’s listing - and paste in a poster image or a photo of the work if you have one. People search for shows by venue and date, so getting the details on your own site helps the exhibition get found, not just admired.

Questions people ask

How do I add an exhibition announcement to my website?
If your site is hosted with bernard, tell the AI you already use - ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini - the show’s name, venue and dates. It writes the announcement and places it prominently, and nothing goes live until you approve the preview.
Where on the site should an exhibition announcement go?
Usually the home page, so visitors see it first - plus your news or exhibitions page if you have one. The AI will suggest a placement and you’ll see exactly where it sits on the preview before approving.
Can I take the announcement down after the show ends?
Yes - one message when it’s over, and it comes down or moves to your exhibition history. bernard keeps a full year of history, so a past announcement can be restored.
