We have a wonderful FREE resouce we can use as artists. I was interested learning more about artist grants and fellowships when I found the Arkansas Art Council. Before I could apply for a grant, I needed to join the artist registry. It was soooo easy!
Take some time to look through the resources we have as artist. Even though I originally only joined to get more information about grants, I am part of an organization that is committed to keeping artist up to date with local and national artist news. Signing up, you receive updates on new call to artist including competitions and places looking for artist to commission large art projects.
You also have your own page on the Arkansas registry where you can display 10 of your pieces of work... did I mention that it was a FREE service!?

and for arts enthusiasts and supporters to discover the rich variety of
