OPPORTUNITIES FOR ARTISTS

We champion artists. Join the Cardoza roster and get your work in front of the right spaces.

Cardoza LLC connects emerging and established artists with corporate, hospitality, and institutional clients across Dallas and beyond. We are always looking to grow our network of talented creatives whose work deserves placement in meaningful spaces.

HOW IT WORKS

Our model supports artists at every stage.

When a client engagement calls for new work, we draw from our curated roster of artists — matching medium, scale, aesthetic, and budget to the right creative voice. Here is what working with Cardoza looks like for artists:

Submit Your Portfolio

Share your work, artist statement, and the mediums you specialize in. We review every submission personally — no algorithms, no gatekeeping.

Open to all visual artists — glass, sculpture, painting, mixed media, textile, photography, installation, and more.

Get Matched to Opportunities

When a project brief comes in that fits your style and medium, we reach out directly. You decide if the project is right for you — no obligations, no exclusivity.

Opportunities range from corporate lobbies and hospitality suites to private collections and public installations.

We Handle the Business Side

Cardoza manages client relations, contracts, logistics, and installation coordination. You focus on what you do best — making the work.

Artists receive fair compensation, clear timelines, and professional documentation of every placed piece.
