COMMUNITY &
COMPENSATION
FOR CREATIVES
MISSION
our mission is to foster local in-person communities for creatives and lovers of the arts as well as develop online technology to enhance collaboration among artists and create lasting financial value for creatives and their fans.
PRINCIPLES
members of this community share the same basic values regarding
creativity, collaboration, and the lived experience:​
-
community building: we spend time together to experience creative wonders in our nearby local environments with no clear objective other than being.
​​
-
attribution: we give homage to those who inspire us and upon whose work we develop our own practice
​​
-
technology: we value, develop, and use technology to enhance our creative practice not stifle it–adapt it to our needs not us adapt to it.
​​
-
include our neighbors: as artists we naturally uplift and enrich our lived communities and spaces
-
multi-generational spaces + events: we are conscious of the needs of babies, children, teens, and the elderly (enhance sound or reduce sound, etc.)
​​
-
capital: as artists we create lasting value via a financial system to achieve lasting wealth for us and consumers of our creations–independent of tips, donations or patrons.
​​
-
healthy joyous spaces + locations: we operate in well-lit, clean, airy, uplifting places with greenery for enhanced well-being.

learning
artwyrx members host events for their local community centered around experiencing creativity and the arts right in their own neighborhoods.
artwyrx members are creatives who share and sell their work in our online gallery,
use our software to collaborate, and distribute their work as digital products.

TECHNOLOGY
artwyrx members access two technological systems developed by creatives for creatives.
most platforms have creatives running on a hamster wheel, oftentimes isolated, exhausting themselves
trying to keep up with the arbitrary demands of an algorithm designed to serve advertisers not them.
we create software to help creators find collaborators to complete their dream work, and we are developing
an online system so creatives can earn money now and possibly in the future, too, via a share of resales.
at our gallery members can distribute their work as a unique digital asset and issue a collection,
the same way a photographer or printer or bookmaker would issue a limited edition of their work.
we plan to also make it easy for creatives using other online tools to sell their work as a limited edition digital collection.
MEMBERSHIP
we are establishing an official membership. members have the ability to host events, share and sell work on our gallery, use our collaboration software and issue work as a limited edition digital series.
we will issue a monthly zine to highlight work by our members that is free to view online.
view work in our gallery soon, or click here to see artwyrx events in your area.
