Career Development
Sharon Louden Resource Page - Sharon has created a comprehensive list of resources for art opportunities, publications, funding sources, and so much more.
VVrkshop.art - Paddy Johnson helps artists land the exhibitions, residencies, and grants of their dreams. Really informative IG: @vvrkshop.art.

Art Opportunities
Creative Capital - A thorough list of artist opportunities to apply for. Discover international, national, and regional grants with specific deadlines. I’ve had annually recurring application deadlines on my personal calendar for a very long time. It’s a great feeling when you can delete one because you finally got it!
Call for Entry & Public Artist - Two sites for browsing open calls and competitions whether they be local, regional, national, or international. I entered a lot of pay to play competitions in my 20’s and have a lot of thoughts about it. Today, I primarily use these sites to discover calls for art in the public art and permanent commission realm.
Journalism
Hyperallergic - A forum for serious, playful, and radical thinking about art in the world today. I was a former contributing writer and strongly support their coverage of art and culture.
The Market
Artsy - The leading online marketplace for art. Peruse it to be informed of pricing, not to compare and despair.
Platforms
Foundwork - a 501(c)3 charitable organization whose mission is to support access and recognition for contemporary artists wherever they are based. I used to work here and I’m proud of its development into a nonprofit with a continued production of insightful dialogues between art practitioners.
