Working Artists and the Greater Economy is an activist organization founded in New York City in 2008 . Still artist-run, we operate two connected programs: W.A.G.E. Certification for art institutions and WAGENCY for artists and art workers. Click here  to learn more.

Join us online Sunday, November 3rd from 3 - 4:30 pm EST for Tools in Hands, a participatory introduction to WAGENCY.

Not a formal trade union, umbrella group, or guild, WAGENCY is an organizing infrastructure designed to increase workers’ individual bargaining power and build collective leverage in the arts. Read the announcement  and register here .
