Membership · For Artists
You make
the work.
We do the rest.
Pop-up shows, buyers in the room, and the business support that should have come standard. Three ways in now, starting with free.
Get in TouchThe pitch
Most artists are great at making the work and exhausted by everything else. The marketing, the pricing, the small talk with people who want to know "what it means," the constant low-grade panic about the algorithm. We get it. We are it.
Membership puts you in front of buyers, in a room with other artists figuring it out at the same time, and on the receiving end of the business support that should have come standard.
Why this exists
Hang Dallas is what you'd build for yourself if you had time to build anything. We didn't have time either, so we built it for all of us.
Included in both tiers
What everyone gets.
Every member, regardless of tier, walks in with all of this.
Quarterly pop-up shows
A spot in our quarterly art pop-up, in front of an audience that came to buy.
Featured on the site
Your own artist page on hangdallas.com with work for sale, where buyers can preview your pieces on their own wall before they commit.
Members-only happy hour
Monthly. Real people, no networking energy.
Early ticket access
First crack at event tickets before the public sees them.
Preferred vendors list
Plus member discounts and coupons as we finish negotiating them. Pending
Local art supply stores discount
A member discount to the places you shop regularly for your business. Pending
Private member community
A members-only channel for the questions you don't want to ask in public.
Group business strategy sessions
Quarterly, 90 minutes, small groups capped at 15.
Three ways in
Pick your way in.
Open Studio is free and open to every artist. The two membership tiers share the same community, the same shows, and the same setup fee. What separates them is your commission split, your 1:1 time, and whether you get the Content Hub.
Open Studio
Free
All artists deserve support. This is us meaning it.
- Goal tracking that tells you what to do this week.
- The pricing guide, the outreach templates, the worksheets.
- The events calendar and the DFW show application list.
- A seat in the community Slack.
- A look at how selling with Hang works, so you know what you'd be applying for.
No card. No trial clock. You're in as soon as you set a password.
Open Studio is tools and community. Membership is us selling your work.

Free vs membership
Open Studio, answered.
Is Open Studio actually free?
Yes. No card, no trial period, no surprise upgrade. It’s free because the support layer should be.
What’s the difference between Open Studio and membership?
Open Studio is tools and community: goals, resources, events, Slack. Membership is us selling your work: shows, the shop, the splits, the social media. Membership is curated, so it takes an application.
Can I move from Open Studio to membership?
That’s the idea. Apply whenever you’re ready. We also review Open Studio regularly and personally invite artists to apply.
Not ready to apply?
Still on the fence.
Membership is small on purpose, so we'd rather you join sure. Send us a question, or grab fifteen minutes and talk to a founder.
Rather talk it out?
Pick a time below. We'll see you there.
Come hang.
Membership is small on purpose. We sell work we can stand behind, so the roster is curated and the application is real. Open Studio is how we support everyone else, and where we find people to invite.
