Be a part of the Alamance Arts Artist Core - a group of local and regional artists with the goal of connecting to the community through promotion of their art. Artist memberships become “effective” the date they become live on our website and are not limited to visual artists. An Artist Core Membership offers the benefit of being listed on a live, regularly updated document that will be housed on alamancearts.org. Alamance Arts frequently receives requests for recommendations of artists, and this directory will serve as our tool and one for the community to locate talent. In addition, you’ll have increased visibility through our website. (Which in 2024 had 49,000 unique visitors.) And, you can use your membership to help elevate your portfolio.
PLEASE DOWNLOAD AND READ THE ARTIST CORE AGREEMENT PRIOR TO CHECK OUT
*Note that processing times for launch may be extended, as the directory will not be published until a minimum number of artists have signed up to participate. Your membership will not go into effect until the day the membership goes live on alamancearts.org
