Artists
Show your work in Downtown.
Two ways into the night, whether it is your first show or your fiftieth. Both of them open on a Thursday, with the crowd already walking.
- Next · Thursday, Oct 1
- New hang every month

Two ways in.
One is our own room and it is curated. The other is fifty rooms across the map, and it is for artists we have already shown.
For a first show with us
Emerging Gallery
Our own gallery, rehung for every ArtNight. A monthly rotation of new and emerging Los Angeles artists, curated by Happening in DTLA.
- Open to submissions every month
- Selected work hangs for a full month
- Opening night on ArtNight, with the crowd at the door
For artists who have shown before
Partner Spaces
Galleries, venues, restaurants, and rooftops across the map host artists every month. If you have shown with us before, tell us you are back and we will place you.
- Venues across all three neighborhoods
- Placement on the printed and digital map
- Promoted across DTLA ArtNight and Happening in DTLA

Opening night in the Emerging Gallery, hung floor to ceiling.
Emerging Gallery
From your inbox to opening night.
Send your work
Email a link to your portfolio, or a few images and a short note about the work.
We review it
Happening in DTLA curates every hang, the same way it curates the night.
It hangs for a month
Selected work stays up for the full month, not for the one evening.
Your opening is ArtNight
The crowd is already at the door. You do not have to bring one.
Not sure which one you are?
Write to us anyway and say what you make. If the Emerging Gallery is full this month, we will look at the partner spaces.
