Why is there an application process for artists? I have some art but I doubt I would be accepted because there are loads of more famous and highly credentialed artists in my area.

Great question. We have an application process for a few reasons:

1. Because curation is important to us

2. So we can learn about the artist and how best to help them

3. So we can take time to help onboard artists and show them how best to make use of Art in Res

We built Art in Res so that anyone can apply, and we take our time to consider every application.
