WHAT'S NEW WITH ART-COLLECTING.COM

Recently we're added an SSL Certificate to Art-Collecting.com making it more secure. It was a bit of a struggle to get everything set up correctly. The end result, we now have a better art resource site. Our new web address is https://art-collecting.com.

We've checked all links within our guides to make sure they're correct and pointing to the correct URL. About 30% of the websites online now use SSL Certificates. In general the art world has a higher rate of SSL Certificates, closer to 70% as determined when checking our links.

We've added major guides to our Art Fairs section. The New York Art Fair Guide and the new
Los Angeles Art Fair Guide, are our most recent additions to go along with our Miami and Miami Beach Art Fair Guide. These guides are up year-around to help you plan visits to these important art cities. Next up is Miami Art Week, December 2-8, 2019, we're currently working on that guide.

Our Art Books section has changed and now has less Amazon.com and more independent book sellers, and used/rare book sellers. We hope to develop additional partnerships to make this section even better. We've also been working on our Art Magazine section, where you'll find a comprehensive listing of magazine about art.

Art-Collecting.com is an online resource for all art enthusiasts. Art collectors, art travelers and artists will find our comprehensive online Art Gallery Guides and Art Museum, Art Centers, and Non-Profit Art Organizations guide to be very useful. They are created for the art communities that they represent and for visitors to those communities. We feature guides for thirty-seven major art destinations as well as every state.

Here at Art-Collecting.com, we love art as much as you do and are always trying to improve our guides. If you have suggestions or notice anything that should be changed let us know. If you'd like to be listed, please look under the About US section in the top navigation. You can also help by mentioning us to your art friends and to galleries that you visit. Feel free to mention us and post links on your Social Media.
