Art Sales Academy - Visual Artists Association
This is an on-demand course for VAA members on face-to-face art sales techniques, not a call for artists to submit work.
Open calls for artists
Every open call, residency, grant, and fair worth applying to, in one place and scored to your work, so the admin stops eating your studio time. The art is the hard part.
Built for working visual artists, not galleries or event organizers. Free doesn't mean you're the product: we don't sell your data, and we tell AI crawlers not to train on it. How we handle your data
Free, no card needed. Tell us your medium and where you work, and every listing gets a fit score.
Fit score on every listing
Each call is scored 0 to 100 against your medium, location, and budget, with the reasoning shown.

How it works →
