APT is a group of artists and business people dedicated to helping artists who either live or sell their work in Texas, providing exposure, innovative exhibitions, lucrative opportunities for artists, seminars, art outings, and avenues to help artists refine their presentation. We celebrate creative innovators, and foster a relationship with professionals and patrons interested in great art.  

 

This is your art organization, so APT wants to hear about any new trails you are blazing in the art world, and what YOU want to see more of - how can we assist you as an artist?
