Artist Opportunities
24/7 Submissions
Art Share L.A. has been an advocate for the Los Angeles artist community for over 20 years. We have been able to assist over 10,000 artists with funding for projects, providing exhibition opportunities, and public art commissions so that artists may continue their art practice while living affordably. We are excited to continue this advocacy through our Artist Submissions portal. Our team at Art Share L.A. will continuously search through the portal submissions for inclusion in exhibitions, projects, and more!
Open Call for Live Painters
Art Share L.A. is excited to announce an open call for live painters to be featured in our Summer Block Party! Art Share L.A. creates equitable access and opportunity for emerging artists by providing a creative environment for them to live, work, develop, perform, and exhibit. We believe artists, as individuals, must be valued and supported as a vital part of a culturally rich, vibrant community. We pride ourselves on exhibiting artists at a caliber that meets the standards of the professional art world and presentation is extremely important not only for each individual artist, but for all of us as a group on Saturday, August 2nd from 3–8 PM!
We’re looking for dynamic, engaging artists to paint live during the event, adding vibrant energy and creativity to an unforgettable outdoor summer celebration in the heart of the Arts District.
