Artists Supporting Artists International is a free global network connecting artists and arts-related businesses across disciplines and borders. Founded by theatre director and educator Glenn Hayden, ASA exists on a simple belief — that the most meaningful support in the arts comes from within the arts. Whether you are an artist seeking opportunities, resources, or collaboration, or an organisation with something to offer, this is your portal. No gatekeepers. No fees. Just the industry, looking after its own.
The Artists Directory. If you are an artist, list your profile and be found by the people who need you — casting directors, collaborators, producers, and peers searching for exactly what you bring. If you are looking for artists, this is where to start. A free, searchable directory built on the belief that artists should support artists by making each other visible.
Global Network. Whether you are an artist looking for industry connections or an arts organisation, company, or venue with something to offer — this is your network. The ASA Global Network exists to close the distance between those who need support and those who can give it. Free to join. Open to all who work in and for the arts.
Noticeboard. For artists seeking opportunities — grants, open calls, auditions, residencies, and industry news with closing dates that matter. For organisations with something to offer — a free space to reach artists who are actively looking. The ASA Noticeboard is where need meets generosity. Post. Search. Act before the deadline.
