Since 1993, we have represented artists of all kinds from top award winners to lesser known yet highly talented artists from all over the world. We prefer to obtain the broadest possible O-1 Visa for our artist clients so that they have maximum freedom to live and work for a variety of employers for a variety of projects across the USA --- whether for performing, designing, creating, exhibiting, teaching or otherwise working in their specific area of “extraordinary” ability.
- Known to some as an “artist visa”, the O -1 visa is ideal for every kind of artist who wants to live and work in the US.
- For some people, O-1 may actually be “better” than a “green” card.
The O-1 artist does not have to be an international prize winner--but must have a prominent or distinctive career. If the artist is working in film or TV they should have an outstanding achievement in film or television.
***We will need to analyze your Portfolio/Credentials and Resume/CV to see if you will qualify for the O-1. We will also need to analyze your plans and job opportunities and information about your “sponsor” in the U.S. To set up a Consultation/Appointment choose from the menu above ***
***O-1 Visas are for talented people working in All The Arts, including: TV/FILM/CREW, WRITERS, VISUAL ARTISTS of All Kinds, Actor/Dancer/Performers of all kinds, Musicians of all kinds. Teachers of Arts of all kind and any field that can be considered “art” such as “martial arts”& culinary arts from chefs to sommeliers.***

Note: Actually, O-1 is really for any person in any profession—not only artists--- who are considered to be “extraordinary” whether it is in the arts, science, business, athletics, or some combination. We have also represented all kinds of non-artistic talent from one of the founder of Green Peace, to HIV Experts, Solar Energy Scientists, Oil Shipping Executives, Marketing Experts, Traders, Wine and Whiskey Experts, Education Experts, Professional Athletes and more.
Note: Young Artists/Students-Sometimes young artists (prodigies) might qualify for O-1 status, but there are other
visa options that are probably more appropriate.
