Starving Artists Opportunities is exactly the tool which every artist needs! This platform has saved me hours of online research trying to find open calls, residencies and exhibitions. More often than not, when searching for these opportunities myself I find the deadline has already passed, rendering my research almost entirely wasted! ⁠
 
⁠Becoming a member of Starving Artists changes this altogether. Being able to see all current open calls and tracking their deadlines means you are able to be completely up to date and not miss any opportunities! ⁠
 
⁠Thank you Starving Artists Opportunities!

Starving Artists opened my mind to what’s out there!⁠
 
⁠I’d only been subscribed to Starving Artist for a day before I’d found 5 opportunities well suited to me. I had no awareness of these awards or projects beforehand - As a result I was long listed for one and shortlisted for another! I’m now off to Berlin to perform in the BBA art prize. How did that happen?!⁠
 
⁠The table format for navigating the opportunities makes Starving Artists great, It allows you to personalise the table to your practice without sifting through hundreds of irrelevant opportunities.⁠
 
⁠Let’s see what else I can find!

The Starving Artists opportunity table has been so handy for my practice, it saves me time and even more valuably it saves me energy when I am looking for work.
 
The table has opportunities of all kinds and it’s easy to filter to what works for my practice. Combined with the application support and tutoring available, Starving Artists is a godsend that I’d recommend to anyone making art.

Firstly I just want to say Thank you! You really run such a valuable resource! It saves me so much time which I can then spend embroidering, which is actually what I want to do!⁠
⁠
Since joining your members area some of the opportunities I have had through you are… I got through to the final 7 for a National Trust commission (Bourne mill) and I got to do a presentation! Even though I didn’t get the commission it was an incredible experience and I learned a lot. I am currently also a finalist in the upcoming Share Prize with all the finalists exhibiting between October 31 and November 5 during the Torino Contemporary Art Week in Italy! And I was previously a finalist in the fine art textile award which was exhibited with thefestivalofquilts this year in Birmingham!

Why I love starving artists,⁠
⁠
Putting in applications is a recurring and important part of an artist's life, and it can be a real drag when you spend hours sifting through them. Starving Artist Opportunities makes it so much easier, having all the opportunities in one place, and being able to whittle them down. You can erase the ones that are too expensive to apply to, too far away or not your medium - and you’re left with a clear table of opportunities you are eligible for and can afford. It’s simple and so useful.⁠

Earlier this year I took part in the Sky Portrait Artist of the Year programme that will be aired at the beginning of October. It was a wild experience, miles outside of my comfort zone, but it was great fun and I’m excited to watch it back. It’s made me want to apply to more opportunities and experiences, and I know Starving Artists will be my starting point for that.
