Welcome to AVA’s Artist Resource Library, a growing collection of worksheets, tools, and professional development guides created to support your artistic career at every stage. This space is designed with AVA members in mind, offering practical, accessible materials that help you strengthen your studio practice, build your professional presence, and navigate the larger art world with confidence.

Whether you are revising your artist statement, preparing for a residency application, building your website, organizing your portfolio, or refining your goals, these resources give you clear starting points and structured guidance. Each worksheet is crafted to help you reflect, plan, and take action, while the curated links connect you with trusted national and regional opportunities for growth.

Inside this library, you will find:

• Worksheets that guide you through writing, planning, and self-reflection
• Step-by-step tools for developing artist statements, bios, CVs, and portfolios
• Application support resources for grants, residencies, exhibitions, and public art opportunities
• Links to national arts organizations that offer funding, training, and calls for entry
• Southeastern-focused resources that strengthen your connection to the regional arts network
• Professional development materials created through AVA’s Propeller Program and Artist Coaching initiatives

These tools are here to meet you where you are and help you move toward where you want to go. Explore, download, adapt, and return often. As AVA continues to expand its professional development offerings, this library will grow with new worksheets, updated links, and fresh materials to support your evolving practice.

If you have questions, need guidance, or want help applying these tools to your own work, AVA members can schedule office hours or professional development coaching for individualized support.

Your practice matters. Your voice matters. We are here to help you build, refine, and thrive.
