Vending machines…for art? Yes, they exist! Vintage cigarette vending machines are refurbished into Art-O-Mats around the country to dispense 2 1/8″ x 3 1/4″ x 7/8″ original works of art. They create an inexpensive opportunity for new art collectors while allowing artists to display and sell their artwork in a unique venue.

Around 400 international artists are currently involved, and the organization is always on the hunt for fresh work. Find out about submission guidelines here.
The variations between the machines alone are worth a trip to the website!
