Kinetic

Kinetic is a dynamic program rooted in Hamiltonian Artists’ mission to nurture community and increase access to opportunity for emerging artists.

Kinetic Members are given exclusive access to programs focused on building collectors’ knowledge and confidence to meaningfully support artists, galleries, and area arts nonprofits.

What are the membership benefits?

The program encourages members to purchase art from carefully selected catalog of work by emerging artists. For new collectors, this opportunity to live with art may encourage them to form new, lasting connections with DC area artists and the broader art world.

Additional Kinetic benefits include intimate programs around and about supportive collecting practices including artist studio and collector visits, talks on inventory management and insurance, handling and installing artwork, and more—all aimed at making art collecting easier and more transparent.

How does Kinetic support artists?

All artists are paid a participation fee and 60% of sales. Artists and collectors gain exclusive access to a community interested in sustaining the visual arts in the DC area.

Why a membership fee?

By paying a membership fee, you help to underwrite Kinetic, the Hamiltonian Artists fellowship, and general operating expenses. Thank you.
