Our Mission
Inspiring Serious Art Shoppers to Invest in Your Art. At Hot Works, we prioritize the quality of the artwork and the artist-patron relationship. We feature only original, handmade art by the artist present in the booth. To foster an environment that encourages meaningful connections between artists and buyers, we intentionally avoid distractions like loud music and food vendors.
The Jury & Submitting Your Artwork
A panel of experienced art professionals carefully juries each Hot Works show. Selection criteria include originality, technique, execution, and booth presentation. Submit three images of your most compelling work and one of your booth set up as it will appear at the show.
After the jury process, you will be notified of your acceptance, rejection, or waitlist status. Upon acceptance, booth fees are due 60 days prior to the event. Artists who are selected as alternates will be placed on a waiting list. All jury decisions are final. Booth assignments will be available on the website approximately two weeks before the show.
