Art Is Luv is a movement.  Simply put, we aspire to move the masses to support, make accessible, and experience the world of art.  It is our belief that art is omniscient.  It lives and breathes among us and within us.   Our mission at Art Is Luv is to empower individuals to connect and live with art in a way that is natural and familiar.  We strive to inspire emerging artists as well as create art collectors out of art admirers.  We offer artists both a local and global presence through thematic exhibitions, curatorial services, branding, and web marketing.  

Best of all, Art is Luv is an evolution of a community-focused artistic journey.  As members of this community, we understand the importance of establishing relationships with both artists and enthusiast in a way that is raw, inspiring, and live.  Join us.  We promise, it's gonna be dope!
