Who We Are
Our Mission
The mission of Art Love Collective is to promote growth within the Lawrence/NE Kansas art community by…
- Introducing emerging talents
- Encouraging support and educational development
- Creating an inclusive environment
- Offering on-site creative spaces
…and providing a setting for artists to share their work with the community.
There is a gap in the Lawrence art scene.
Our Reason
Additionally, younger artists and artists from marginalized groups have reported feeling disenfranchised by community art organizations that do exist in Lawrence. There is a need for a fresh, supportive, and less formal space for artists to hang out, meet, work, collaborate, teach, and sell their work.
- Sell work without paying a high commission
- Teach classes and keep the tuition
- Create art
- Collaborate
- Meet potential customers
- Photograph their art
- Network
- Learn
- Grow their business
- Cultivate an online presence
- Trade/share art supplies
- Attend & host totally amazing events
