Artomatic is an open-entry creative art showcase of visual art, music, film, performance, poetry and fashion. We typically occupy a large commercial space of over 90,000 sq ft (up to 250,000 sq ft) that is either in transition or has recently been delivered to the market. The process of bringing hundreds of artist together helps build a community amongst those artist and creates a market to sell their work.
Artomatic is a free event that is open to the public. It is funded by Artists’ registration fees, sponsorships and public donations.

Typically a visual artist shares a standard office size with one or more other artist depending on the size of the office. Lets say on average a minimum of 10-12 linear ft (3-4 meters).
The 2024 Artomatic building can accommodate over 1,400 registered artist.
All artist sales are 100% between the artist and buyer. The artist must handle sales directly? If the artist isn’t present, it is up to them to determine how to conduct a transaction. All art installed must remain in place until 29 April, at which time de-installation takes place.
During Artomatic hours of operation no art is allowed to leave the building. Our artist volunteers are stationed at entrances and exits and through-out the event and enforce this rule.
We rely on volunteers so please make sure to go to our Get Involved section. We would love to have you assist us in our activities!
