Artists
We don't book artists for venues, but we do want to help. Let venues know you are looking for a place to show your work by submitting to our Artists Directory. We recommend visiting venues to see which might be right for you.
If you need help with contacting a venue, let us know! If you have art showing at a venue that isn't already listed with us, or if your venue doesn't fill out their event information for you, then you are welcome to submit your event for promotion!

Why? Supporting arts means you're supporting a vibrant community that your employees and customers will want to live and work in. Hosting art helps you build market share, enhance your brand, and reach new customers. Community art programs create an environment that blends backgrounds, ethnicities, and cultures. This means when you partner with local arts, you partner with the whole city. When you support art, the community develops a personal investment in your business, which can lead to greater longevity and success for you.
