Help CenterHUG is the most inclusive destination for next-generation creators, especially for artists looking to do more and make more from their craft.
We are a supportive 25,000+ strong global creative community that provides you the tools and resources to monetize your work, while also helping you to establish meaningful connections with your fellow creatives as well as prospective customers, clients, curators, and more.
A home for your art
HUG is a place for you to showcase and sell your art exactly how you want. Every creator who joins HUG gets access to a complimentary Portfolio tool that allows you to organize and display your body of work so you can get more easily discovered by our growing network of art lovers, brand partners, curators, arts institutions, and more.
Grow & diversify revenue streams
The key to any creator's success is revenue diversification. Selling through HUG allows you to monetize your work in different ways all from your very own shop, be it as physical items, digital downloads, or even on the blockchain as an onchain collectible, which is also known as a non-fungible token (NFT).
Not only does this make it easy for you to manage your sales, it also allows you to consolidate and better manage your existing audience, while exposing you to new collectors and customers.
One-of-a-kind opportunities
All HUG members are eligible for free-to-apply Open Call opportunities to take their work from the screen or canvas to the global stage. To date, we have placed over 1,000 artists in exhibitions and events worldwide, and have also distributed over $200,000 of grants and scholarships in collaboration with brand partners such as L'Oréal, Mastercard, DIOR, the United Nations, and more.
Unparalleled learning and growth
We believe in providing creators with accessible education so that they can adapt to the rapidly evolving creator economy, while understanding how to respond and level up their creative business.
HUG members get access to free downloadable resources, and can also choose to participate in live interactive programming to get further ahead in the latest topics in arts, technology, and creative entrepreneurship.
