“Being a self-employed artist is rewarding, but sometimes lonely, so it’s wonderful to feel embraced by such a friendly and supportive community of fellow artists as The Artisan Group.

“This group is AMAZING beyond words!! Getting your products into celebrity gift lounges is a small part of what this group will help you achieve. It goes way beyond that. Every one is so willing to help share what they know and give feedback. This is one of the greatest communities I am a part of. Plus I love that they accept artists from all selling platforms, not just Etsy. Can’t say enough amazing things about this group!!!! I am so honored to be a member and get to work with all these very talented artists.”

“What an honor to be part of The Artisan Group! I’m in awe of the members of this fabulous organization. The artists are diverse, each with an incredible talent so amazing and inspirational. Everyone is invested in the success of the other, which I’ve never seen in any other artist’s organization. The organizers are caring, and maintain the morale of the group. Anytime I’ve had a question, or a problem, my fellow members, whom I lovingly refer to as the SWAT team, come to my rescue, with advice, information, and support. I feel blessed to be part of this group!”
