Put your profile to work.
Your work and career history travel with your Artsume applications. Here’s how artists and organizations use the same record.
What is Artsume?
Artsume gives artists one professional identity for their portfolio, CV and artist statement. They carry that profile into programs instead of retyping the same information into another form. Organizations publish an open call, review applications in the same place, work through them with their team and record the decision. The six steps below show that exchange in order.
Discover
Artists find programs that fit their practice, and organizations reach artists beyond their own mailing list.
Follow
Follow an organization and its new programs arrive in your feed.
Apply
Artists apply in minutes, and organizations receive structure instead of zip files.
Review
Juries score against the program's own criteria and compare every candidate in the same format.
Decide
Every applicant hears back with a decision letter, and the conversation continues in messages.
Stay connected
Alumni stay connected to the organization, which can confirm the credit they earned on their CV.
One shared professional standard.
Artists carry their history to the next organization, and organizations reuse the information they already have.
Common questions
Do I fill in a new application for every program?
No. The application draws from your profile, so your portfolio, CV and artist statement arrive already filled in. You check them, answer anything the program asks on top, and send.
How do organizations review the applications they receive?
A jury scores each application against the program's own criteria and compares every candidate in the same format. Each decision is recorded as it is made.
Does every applicant hear back?
Yes. Every applicant receives a decision letter, and the conversation carries on in messages afterwards.
What happens after a program ends?
The relationship stays. Alumni remain in the organization's network, and the organization can confirm the credit the artist earned on their CV.
What does Artsume cost?
An artist profile is free, and browsing every open program is free. Paid plans add more tools for artists and for organizations. The pricing page lists what each one includes.
