Ten years ago, AUTOMAT’s founders joined other kindred collectives in Philadelphia to imagine an alternative to the elitism of the commercial gallery scene. Ten years later, we are calling on our community to celebrate this accomplishment with us and to support us into the future.

PROOF OF CONCEPT: 10 Years of AUTOMAT reflects on our structure and history and proves that artist-led alternatives are possible. Support us, connect with our members, and hang out with the larger artist-run community in Philadelphia at this party that has been a decade in the making.
