Setting Up Your Organization
Setting Up Your Organization#
Create your organization profile on Artsumé, invite team members, and configure your workspace to start managing opportunities.
Create your organization#
- Sign up or log in to Artsumé
- Select Organization as your account type (or add an organization to an existing account)
- Fill in your organization details:
- Name — Your organization's official name
- Handle — Unique identifier (like
@gallery-name) - Type — Gallery, museum, residency, grant program, etc.
- Location — City, state/province, country
Complete your profile#
Add the information artists will see when browsing opportunities:
Basic info:
- Description — What your organization does (2-3 paragraphs)
- Website URL
- Contact email
- Social media links
Visual identity:
- Logo — 400×400px recommended
- Banner image — 1600×400px recommended
Make your description specific. "We support emerging artists through residencies and grants" is better than "We are committed to fostering artistic excellence."
