Show work. Sell work. Be part of the room.

AQUI events are built for artists and vendors who want more than a table in the corner.

If you make art, sell prints, shoot photos, paint live, create zines, design clothing, make jewelry, play music, run a creative small business, or bring something people should experience in person, there may be a place for you at an upcoming AQUI event.

  • Photography exhibitions
  • Live painting, music, and DJ participation
  • Coffee shop pop-ups and themed art calls
