Born on the South Shore of Massachusetts, Artypants now connects artists and readers across New England. We aim to help more people see and feel the impact of art in their own neighborhoods—and to inspire creativity and support for the local economy.

Artypants does not discriminate on age, gender, identity, background, ability, medium, or experience level. We seek work that resonates with the theme and with our readers.

If you’re new to us, explore our social media or consider ordering our last issue. We want this to feel like an aligned opportunity, not just another contest to enter.

What Happens After I Apply?

Once payment is submitted, for application, a PDF will be sent to the email you applied with outlining next steps. Your application is not complete until those steps are followed.

Artists will be notified about selection for Issue 04 by mid-April 2026

Due to the volume of submissions, we are unable to provide individual feedback to artists not featured

Much of our impact comes from the generous sharing of participating artists and the support of our ad partners. When your work is featured, you become part of how new readers discover the magazine and the creative community within it.

Accepted artists for Issue 04 are expected to share their involvement across their networks—in a way that feels authentic to your own voice and style. We ask for promotion at two key moments:

1. when you’re notified of acceptance, and

2. when the magazine is released.

To make this easy and enjoyable, Artypants will provide a media kit with images and suggested language. Use it as inspiration, adapt it, or share in your own way—there’s no requirement to post exactly what we provide.

Participation expectations are outlined in the application, but at heart it’s simple: helping spread the word helps your work travel farther—and helps Artypants continue amplifying artists like you.
