This Art Basel, we’re hosting a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity: an exclusive event where selected artists can pitch their most ambitious, world-changing projects directly to a group of iconic entrepreneurs, co-hosted hosted by Master of Ceremonies Daymond John of Shark Tank and artist Jefre who was recently signed to Daymond's latest project, Shark Art! Iconic entrepreneurs including Julia Steyn, Andre Crawford of Inked Nine, and Maggie Streng of Zig-Zag are all looking to help artists take upcoming projects to the next level.
Whether your dream involves an immersive installation, a scalable creative product, a groundbreaking community initiative, or a new way to bring art into the world—Daymond and the crew want to hear it. This is your chance to gain:
✨ Mentorship from some of the most influential business minds in the world
✨ Access to powerful industry connections
✨ Potential funding to bring your vision to life
Any professional, full-time artist may apply and 8 finalists will be selected to live pitch their concept on December 4, 2025 at 2PM at the Museum of Graffiti. You must be in Miami for this live event if you are selected for the live pitch.
SUBMISSIONS ARE NOW CLOSED. If you would like to attend this event and watch the live pitches, tickets are available HERE.
