What is POBA?

POBA IS WHERE THE ARTS LIVE!

POBA | Where the Arts Live is a non-profit online hub that celebrates the creative works of exceptional contemporary artists – known and unknown – who died without recognition of the full measure of their talents or legacies. Across genres and media, these works inspire and enliven us all. POBA showcases, promotes, and preserves the legacies of these artists through its displays and promotions on our site. And, through tangible services, POBA assists collectors, estates, and working artists in managing their collections for future preservation, viewing, and value.

POBA is where you can:

  • Create and display Portfolios of legacy artists on a DIY basis or with POBA’s help
  • Obtain personalized Concierge Services to get creative works organized, preserved, digitized, valued, and promoted
  • Support POBA's non-profit mission
