Know a call that isn't here?

Send us the link to its page. We'll read it and decide whether it goes on the board. No account needed.

We use the email only to get in touch about this link. No subscription.

Most applications ask for a PDF portfolio, a CV and a statement. ArtFond assembles all three from an artist's site.
