A platform for creative exchange

Art should be accessible

Artaway connects artists with hosts who have inspiring spaces to share. Whether you're a muralist looking for a wall, a writer seeking solitude, or a host wanting to bring creativity into your space — we make it simple to find each other and arrange exchanges, residencies, and paid opportunities.

Too many creative opportunities are hidden behind expensive applications, closed networks, or word of mouth. We believe access to inspiring spaces and creative collaboration should be open to everyone — not just those with the right connections.

What people are saying

From artists and hosts who've connected through Artaway

"In four months I did five art exchanges across Brazil, Spain, Portugal, the UK and Morocco — earth pigment workshops, murals, watercolor residencies. Each time I received everything in return: accommodation, food, workspace, materials. I'd do it all again with this platform bringing more organization and clarity to the stay."

"The spaces we create in shape the work we make — every residency I've done has opened unexpected doors. Artaway gets that. It's a simple, human way to connect artists with the places and people that inspire them."
