In addition to the Gateway Arts District Artists Directory, it is integral for artists to be listed on various state and local listings. When organizations or the public looks for artists, they search area artist registries first.

Once purchased, the artwork is documented, framed and installed in public areas of DC government agencies, improving the environment in public facilities for DC employees and residents alike.
