Artwrld App Turns Cities Into Open-Air Galleries
The Artwrld app is redefining accessibility in the art world. Using real-time maps, it guides users to galleries, museums, and pop-up shows—turning any city into an open-air art walk.
The art world is often accused of being a fortress—exclusive, opaque, hidden behind white walls. A new app, Artwrld, is trying to smash that door open.
Built as a map-based guide, Artwrld turns any city block into a potential art walk. Users can pull up nearby galleries, pop-up shows, museums, or artist-run spaces, with real-time info on what’s happening. It’s part calendar, part compass, part key to the city.
But the bigger idea goes beyond navigation. Artwrld leans into accessibility, insisting that art should be a shared experience, not a private club. It invites people to wander, stumble on hidden gems, and connect with others who are curious enough to explore.
The app is live in Los Angeles and New York, with more cities on the horizon. The goal? To make the art world less of an insider’s game and more of an everyday map—one you can carry in your pocket.
