ArtLink is building a vetted network of independent art professionals for gallery, museum and collector work across Los Angeles, New York and San Francisco.

We coordinate art handling, installation and deinstallation, crating and packing, fabrication, painting, AV and digital media, and transport. Work comes to you job by job — you see the scope, the date and the pay before you accept anything.

Pay is \$40–65/hour and up, depending on experience and the scope of the work, paid through the platform after each job. There is no exclusivity: keep working wherever else you already work.

We are hiring in all three cities, and we are particularly looking for crate builders with their own shop space (we supply the materials), AV and digital media installers, and handlers with a van or sprinter for local transport work.

If you have gallery, museum or fine-art experience and you want well-paid freelance work without giving up your own clients, we would like to hear from you.

Apply at art-link.io. (Welcome to join from Los Angeles, New York, and San Francisco!)
