Community Access

Collective members work both independently and collaboratively—developing bodies of work, sharing responsibilities for hosted community events, participating in workshops, field trips, and artist talks, and cultivating entrepreneurial skills by promoting, exhibiting, and selling their artwork.

Since its founding in 2015, the Art Collective has recognized the vital importance of access to the arts as a means of self-expression, learning, community connection, and artistic entrepreneurship. Today, the Collective continues to provide a creative hub where artists can pursue their practice free of cost while gaining access to professional opportunities.

Artist Commitment

Members sign an artist agreement outlining our commitment to them, as well as the expectation that they remain actively engaged in art making and contribute to the life of the collective. Volunteer responsibilities may include assisting with event planning, welcoming guests, leading community workshops, or supporting collaborative projects like screen printing.

Community Engagement

The Collective is deeply connected to the community, presenting art exhibitions and creative engagement projects such as stencil printing, mail art, and zine workshops across cultural spaces, libraries, and community hubs.

Artist Exhibit

Engaged artists may gain the opportunity sell their work and collect 100% of proceeds in solo and group exhibitions hosted in the Las Olas Capital Advisor's office space.

• 20-25 pieces for a solo exhibit
• Number of pieces varies for group exhibitions

Artist Support

Members receive 80% of the profit from sales of their artwork, while 20% is reinvested into supplies for the collective. We are also piloting a program that provides active members a monthly stipend, in addition to art sales and the benefits of shared space, supplies, and all collective programming.

• Fund the Gap program to reimburse artists for event entry fees.
• As many pieces of your artwork on our walls as can fit.
• Marketing Materials created and paid for by us.
• A press release to our media list.
• Your art featured on the Las Olas Capital Arts website and social media.
• A reception in your honor open to anyone and everyone.
• We do the planning and organization.  You provide your invite list.
