Who is The Artist’s Office?

The Artist’s Office is operated by Los Angeles-based artist Virginia Broersma. It was born out of a recognition of the need many artists have for business and administrative help while identifying her own aptitude for spreadsheets, proofreading and calendar management. These organizational compulsions paired with a colossal accumulation of resources form the bedrock of the Artist’s Office.

As the Artist’s Office, Virginia works with artists to identify and pursue opportunities such as grants, exhibitions and residencies, while also offering knowledge growth, project planning and peer support.

Part of her work involves engaging with the systems and opportunities available to artists to better understand if and how they are failing to meet the needs of artists on a macro level. Virginia is particularly interested in supporting artists from underrepresented racial/economic/age/ability/gender groups with a goal of achieving parity in terms of visibility, recognition and market value in the art world of the future.

Virginia’s studio is located in the Fashion District in Los Angeles and she lives in Long Beach, CA. Her work can be seen on her website.
