Call for Artists

Join FastFrame & The Westlake Gallery in showcasing your artistic talent! We’re on the lookout for local artists to feature their work in our Custom Art Framing shop. With rotating exhibitions every 2-3 months, we provide a platform for emerging artists to gain exposure and support our vibrant art community.

We welcome submissions year-round and collaborate with select artists to determine the best installation timeframe for both parties. Our criteria for showcasing your work are outlined below, and we kindly ask that you complete the application in full.

For a glimpse of past exhibitors, please visit our Texas Art Gallery page. Notably, artists retain 100% of their earnings from sales—a testament to our commitment to supporting creatives and nurturing our artistic ecosystem.

While we promote the event throughout various forums in Austin, we have found that the main driver of attendance to a Gallery Reception is driven by the artist's reaching out to their followers. If you would like for us to host a Gallery Reception, we expect you to actively promote the event as best as possible. Also, because we are not charging any commissions and making any money off of the sale of the art, we also ask the artist to be responsible for bringing any snacks and/or beverages they would like to offer during the event. If you are interested in a Gallery Reception, we can discuss the logistics further.

Artist keeps 100% of anything sold. Therefore, you also have the responsibility to pay any sales tax or income tax that may be due upon selling any of your artwork. We will inform you of what has been sold, but it is your responsibility to keep accurate records. *I confirm I have read this.

Because 100% of anything sold goes directly to the artists, we ask clients to pay the artists directly. Therefore, you must have the ability to accept payment via Venmo, Paypal or an equally popular direct consumer payment system. *I confirm I will have a consumer payment system set up and working prior to showing my work at FastFrame & the Westlake Gallery.

Communications consent *I agree to receive email communication from FastFrame & The Westlake Gallery.
