Austin Artist Spotlights

Austin is full of extraordinary working artists — in studios off the east side, at the markets, behind the wheel and the press. We use this gallery's platform to shine a light on them. Not a contest, not a pitch — just real exposure for the people making the work we love.

Why we do this

A gallery's most valuable asset isn't its walls — it's its eye, and its audience. The kindest thing we can do with both is point them at artists who deserve to be seen. We've spent our lives learning to look closely; this is us using that to give something back to the city that makes the work.

How it works

01

Share your work

Send us your portfolio and a few words about what you make. Takes two minutes — see the form below.

02

We take a real look

A gallery actually looks at your work, with the same eye we bring to the artists we represent.

03

We publish your spotlight

If it's a fit, we write and publish a dedicated feature — your story, your work, links to where people can find and buy it.

04

You share it (and so do we)

Post it, link it, put it on your press page. We promote it too. Real, lasting exposure that keeps working for you.
