.ART
Registry Celebrates 7th Birthday With Over a
Quarter Million Art Lovers Using the Definitive
Domain |
|
The
.ART
domain registry is celebrating its 7th
birthday this month. Since launching on May
10, 2017, .ART has become the Internet home
for over 254,000 artists, creators,
museums, galleries, and institutions around the
world. Over that time, the TLD has established
itself as an essential digital space for artistic
expression and cultural engagement. .ART earned
that position
by consistently leading various
initiatives, leveraging the synergy between art
and technology, that clearly demonstrated their
commitment to nurturing a dynamic community
of creatives and art enthusiasts. Here
are just a few of the many examples and milestones
the registry has to celebrate today: •
Art Therapy Initiative: Establishing a $1
million scholarship fund for Art Therapy
graduate studies at George Washington
University, .ART continues to support programs
that harness creativity for healing, positively
impacting lives and communities. •
Presence at AAM Annual Meeting:
Demonstrating ongoing support for museums and
cultural institutions, .ART will again
participate in the American Alliance of Museums’
annual meeting. |

•
Healing Powers of Art: This year, .ART was
proud to have produced an impactful documentary
exploring the therapeutic roles of art
in mental well-being.
• Digital
Innovation in Art Award: For the seventh year,
.ART proudly sponsors this award as part of GP
Bullhound’s ALLSTARS, celebrating
technological creativity in the art world. Learn

• Meet the .ARTists:
A series of monthly live-streamed webinars
that has elevated the profiles of diverse talents
within our community. The growing awareness of .ART
has attracted notable figures and businesses like Sharon
Stone (SharonStone.art) and rising AI star Pika
(Pika.art), underlining the expansive appeal of the
.ART domain.
|
• Global
Recognition: The .ART community has garnered
attention in top publications such as The New
York Times and The Guardian,
featuring members like Shantell Martin, CIRCA,
and participants of international biennales
including Malta, Sydney, and Shanghai.
• .ART
Publications in the Library of Congress: Our
publications have been recognized by the Library of
Congress including our first “.ART
Odyssey: The Future of Art."
Preparations for the second edition are underway for
publication this fall. |
|
•
Launch of ID.art in Beta: The beta launch of ID.art
marks a significant advancement in digital
identity, offering innovative tools for artists
and creators to showcase their work and connect
globally
|
The .ART team
also believes that the TLD's growth over the
past 7 years has been fueled by the value
that it brings to art lovers around the
world. That comes from the .ART domain
bringing a distinct layer to an online
presence, signaling that one’s work is
not just relevant but vital. Looking ahead,
.ART founder Ulvi Kasimo said,
“As we step into our eighth year, we
remain devoted to providing a dynamic
platform that empowers artistic and cultural
institutions to innovate, share, and
connect."
