The mission of Artists in Real Time is to enhance the enterprise, business expertise, technical resources, and public awareness of visual artists - primarily in the greater Hartford area - through events, programs, and partnerships with other artists, individuals, and private and public organizations.
Artists in Real Time was established in 2003 by a group of artists and supporters involved in organizing Open Studio Weekend in greater Hartford. Today, Open Studio Weekend is still a primary focus of Artists in Real Time. Our organization also provides other programs and resources to help artists promote and sell their work and manage their business.
