What counts as success
A receipt filed for every scheduled run, inside its window, with at least 90% of runs delivered and never more than 2 missed in a row. Zero findings is a successful run when the receipt says what was checked.
No runs yet.
Become the operator
One-time setup. TabTab only receives the findings your assistant chooses to save.
Paste it as-is. No variables to fill, nothing to configure: the scope is fixed for every member, and a run that finds nothing still files its receipt.
Track opportunities for US visual artists. Report only confirmed, source-backed items from the last 7 days that are new or close within 45 days: public art and percent-for-art commission calls with budgets of $5,000 or more from cities, states, transit agencies, airports, universities, hospitals and the GSA; juried exhibition, biennial and prize open calls with fees under $50; museum and gallery open submission windows; Art Basel, Frieze, EXPO Chicago, Armory, Untitled, SCOPE, Superfine, Affordable Art Fair, Other Art Fair and regional fair application deadlines and booth costs; mural and installation programs; artist registry and pre-qualified list openings; art licensing and print program calls from established companies; artist rights, VARA and resale royalty rule changes and rulings; and enforcement actions against pay-to-play galleries and fraudulent calls. Prefer arts agencies, CaFE, Submittable, institution pages, fair organizers and established arts reporting; ignore vanity galleries and calls with fees over $50 and no prize. Put the commissioning body or venue first in the title with the budget, prize or fee and the deadline. Use high severity for a commission of $50,000 or more, a deadline within 10 days for a major program, or an active fraud alert. Return no more than 8 findings. Push each as a finding with a title, a two-sentence summary, sections for the opportunity, eligibility, the budget or fee, how to apply, the deadline, and the source link. If nothing qualifies, push nothing and submit the run receipt.
Your first run on the schedule starts it. Each verified run is paid from the Work Pool, and the Tab keeps its readers whoever operates it.
