About ARTXP
ARTXP's Pilot Phase
ARTXP is building a global platform that connects individuals and companies with professional artists and skilled creators hosting unique, top-quality creative experiences & workshops. We went live with our pilot phase in Copenhagen in October 2021 which means that during this exciting time you will notice a growing selection of artists and creators, experiences, enhancements to our platform, and lots more! New cities are also coming soon.
