PUBLISH LA

PubLish is
where art meets action,
where rebellion turns into dialogue.

Six artists.
Sixty minutes of creation.
Then an additional hour for artists and audience members to talk, question, and reimagine together.

Be part of the next wave.
Want to know when we surface again?

Our logo — three waves — embodies the natural movement of art: it stirs something within, flows through emotion, and washes over us in catharsis — just like water.

It also represents the movement we aim to create:

PUB — to be moved through the consumption of art.
L (Learn) — to be moved through critique (discussions/activities/reflections) of it.
ISH — to be moved enough for it to have an impact (whether that means supporting an artist, circulating ideas, or carrying the feeling forward in your own healing journey).

You can get involved in one of three ways:

Be a patron of the arts and buy the $20 pre-sale VIP ticket.
Apply to be a presenting artist.
Submit a form to volunteer.

For artists who crave growth and aren’t afraid to be seen.

We’re selecting five creators — from any location and from any discipline — to bring their work into a shared space of feedback, refinement, and presentation.

Painters, filmmakers, poets, chefs, performers, dancers, AI artists, fashion designers, photographers — if it moves you and you can present on it for ten minutes, it belongs here.

Together, we’ll gather prior to the show where ideas are tested, art is elevated, and critique comes from care. Must be able to meet in LA.

Then, during the public show, you’ll share your refined piece in front of an audience ready to feel, think, and respond.

No one gets paid — and no one pays to play.

We pay each other with our time, our honesty, and our craft.

BUT you will have the chance to sell your work during the event and keep 100% of your profits.

Selected participants may also become Belasprii Artists, gaining support toward publication, visibility, and your next professional goal.
