Trusted by Hundreds of Events Across the Country and Managed by the Regional Nonprofit, Creative West (formerly WESTAF)

At ZAPP, we’re creatives of all sorts—makers, filmmakers, musicians, writers, and arts patrons. We have a stake in the art festival and fair industry, and in the arts as a whole through our parent organization Creative West. In 2004, Creative West developed the universal online arts application, ZAPPlication, in consultation with the National Association of Independent Artists (NAIA) and eight major art shows across the U.S. ZAPP has been managed by Creative West ever since, with profits helping to fund arts advocacy efforts across the western region.
